TL;DR: It is shown that, as for Line 1, Line 6 colony switching results from an increase in the expression of a colanic acid-like polymer (CAP) and is consistent with a molecular model proposed whereby the carB mutation increases capsulation by redressing the intracellular balance of positive and negative cells and regulators of a positive feedback loop in capsule expression.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa exhibits frequent recombination, but only a limited association between genotype and ecological setting.
TL;DR: The results of a multilocus sequence typing (MLST)-based study designed to understand the genetic diversity and population structure of an extensive regional sample of P. aeruginosa isolates from South East Queensland, Australia reveal a limited association between genotype and environment and evidence of frequent recombination and confirm a non-clonal epidemic structure.

TL;DR: It is shown that China is the origin of the pandemic lineage but that strain diversity in China is confined to just a single clade, and that Korea and Japan harbor strains from multiple clades.

TL;DR: Comparative analysis indicates that pQBR103 shares significant regions of sequence with other plasmids isolated from sugar beet plants grown at the same geographic location, and indicates there is more novelty in the mobile DNA pool accessible to phytosphere pseudomonas than is currently appreciated or understood.
Genome Update for Pseudomonas fluorescens Isolate SBW25
TL;DR: In this paper , a genome update for Pseudomonas fluorescens isolate SBW25 is reported, which is based on PacBio long-read sequence data and shows three minor differences compared with the previously published genome sequence.
