ABSTRACTThe genetic diversity of 35Bacillus sphaericusstrains was analyzed by a newly developed multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme, toxin gene pool survey, and mosquito bioassay. The results demonstrated that strains assigned to the same sequence type (ST) had the same occurrence of toxin genes. Further sequence analysis revealed that toxic strains presented a nearly clonal population structure, whereas nontoxic strains had a high level of heterogeneity and were significantly distinct from toxic strains.

ABSTRACTEscherichia coliis the most common cause of human and canine urinary tract infection (UTI). Clonal groups, often with high levels of antimicrobial resistance, are a major component of theE. colipopulation that causes human UTI. While little is known about the population structure ofE. colithat causes UTI in dogs, there is evidence that dogs and humans can share fecal strains ofE. coliand that human-associated strains can cause disease in dogs. In order to better characterize theE. colistrains that cause canine UTI, we analyzed 295E. coliisolates obtained from canine urine samples from five veterinary diagnostic laboratories and analyzed their multilocus sequence types, phenotypic and genotypic antimicrobial resistance profiles, and virulence-associated gene repertoires. Sequence type 372 (ST372), an infrequent human pathogen, was the predominant sequence type in dogs at all locations. Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing isolates withblaCTX-Mgenes were uncommon in canine isolates but when present were often associated with sequence types that have been described in human infections. This provides support for occasional cross-host-species sharing of strains that cause extraintestinal disease and highlights the importance of understanding the role of companion animals in the overall transmission patterns of extraintestinal pathogenicE. coli.

ABSTRACT We report the complete genome sequence of ceftriaxone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae SS3160, harboring the mosaic penA-60.001 allele. This Japanese isolate has a unique sequence type (ST), ST13429, which was determined by multilocus sequence typing from the chromosome sequence (2,214,955 bp). It carries two plasmids, pConjugative (39,057 bp) and pCryptic (4,207 bp).
