Just published in JAC!
We characterised the genomic features of the multi-resistant A. baumannii global clone 1 reference strain RUH875 — one of the earliest known isolates recovered in 1984 and an important genome for tracing the evolution of AMR in Ab. academic.oup.com/jac/article/... #AMR

Pan-Genus Analysis and Typing of Antimicrobial Resistance Plasmids in Acinetobacter
Plasmids play a central role in horizontal gene transfer and bacterial adaptation, especially in the context of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among opportunistic pathogens. Some members of the genus ...

New pre-print!!! What types of genes end up on plasmids and why? The take home message of this paper is that beneficial genes move from plasmids to chromosome, causing the ecological value of plasmids to decay over time.

Chromosomal capture of beneficial genes drives plasmids towards ecological redundancy
Plasmids are a ubiquitous feature of bacterial genomes, but the evolutionary forces driving genes to become associated with plasmids are poorly understood. To address this problem, we compared the fit...

New year, new assemblies!
I'm excited to announce Autocycler, my new tool for consensus assembly of long-read bacterial genomes!
It's the successor to Trycycler, designed to be faster and less reliant on user intervention.
Check it out: github.com/rrwick/Autoc...
