Abstract
Nitrofurantoin (NIT) has long been a drug of choice in the treatment of lower urinary tract infections. Recent emergence of NIT resistant Enterobacteriaceae is a global concern. An ordinal logistic regression model based on PCR amplification patterns of five genes associated with NIT resistance (nfsA, nfsB, ribE, oqxA, and oqxB) among 100 clinical Enterobacteriaceae suggested that a combination of oqxB, nfsB, ribE, and oqxA is ideal for NIT resistance prediction. In addition, four Escherichia coli NIT-resistant mutants were in vitro generated by exposing an NIT-susceptible E. coli to varying concentrations of NIT. The in vitro selected NIT resistant mutants (NI2, NI3, NI4 and NI5) were found to have mutations resulting in frameshifts, premature/lost stop codons or failed amplification of nfsA and/or nfsB genes. The in vitro selected NI5 and the transductant colonies with reconstructed NI5 genotype exhibited reduced fitness compared to their parent strain NS30, while growth of a resistant clinical isolate (NR42) was found to be unaffected in the absence of NIT. These results emphasize the importance of strict adherence to prescribed antibiotic treatment regimens and dosage duration. If left unchecked, these resistant bacteria may thrive at sub-therapeutic concentrations of NIT and spread in the community.

Abstract
Objective M. morganii is a gram-negative, non-lactose fermenting and an opportunistic pathogen frequently associated with nosocomial infections. Although first isolated in 1906 from a pediatric fecal sample, not many M. morganii isolates have been sequenced. The objective of this work is to determine the complete genome sequence of an XDR M. morganii strain (SMM01) isolated from the urine of a patient with urinary and fecal incontinence and to characterize its antimicrobial resistance profile. Data description Here, we report the complete genome sequence of M. morganii SMM01 generated from the hybrid assembly of Illumina HiSeq X and Nanopore MinION reads. The assembly is 100% complete with genome size of 39,30,130 bp and GC content of 51%. Genomic features include 3617 CDS, 18 rRNAs, 78 tRNAs, 4 ncRNAs and 60 pseudogenes. Antimicrobial resistance profile was characterized by the presence of genes conferring resistance to aminoglycosides, β-lactams, fluoroquinolones, chloramphenicol, and tetracyclines. Secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters like NRPS, T1PKS, thiopeptide, beta-lactone, and bacteriocin were identified. The genome data described here would be the first complete genome of an Indian M. morganii isolate providing crucial information on antimicrobial resistance patterns, paving the way for further comparative genome analyses.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Brucella anthropi is a Gram-negative, aerobic, motile, oxidase-positive, non-fermentative Alphaproteobacteria belonging to the family Brucellaceae. It is most commonly found in soil but is an emerging, opportunistic, nosocomial human pathogen. The objective of this study was to understand the genome features of a drug-resistant B. anthropi (SOA01) isolated from a blood culture of a 4-day-old neonate and to determine its antimicrobial resistance and pathogenic potential. METHODS Hybrid genome assembly of B. anthropi strain SOA01 was generated using quality-trimmed short Illumina and long MinION reads. Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility profile were determined by MALDI-TOF, in silico ribosomal multilocus sequence typing (rMLST) and VITEK®2, respectively. PATRIC webserver and VFDB were used to identify antimicrobial resistance (AMR), virulence factor (VF) and transporter genes. RESULTS Multidrug-resistant B. anthropi strain SOA01 has a genome of 4 975 830 bp with a G+C content of 56.29%. Several AMR, VF and transporter genes were identified in the genome. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed resistance to different classes of antibiotics in strain SOA01. CONCLUSION Brucella anthropi SOA01 is a multidrug-resistant strain. Several AMR and VF genes were identified in the genome, revealing the potential threat posed by this pathogen. The genome data generated in this study are likely to be useful in better understanding its AMR mechanisms, pathogenic potential and successful adaptation from its primary habitat of soil to the human system. Since it is often misidentified as Brucella melitensis or Brucella suis, genome characterisation and detailed understanding of its biology are crucial.

Abstract
Elizabethkingia anophelis has now emerged as an opportunistic human pathogen. However, its mechanisms of transmission remain unexplained. Comparative genomic (CG) analysis of E. anopheles endophthalmitis strain surprisingly found from an eye infection patient with twenty-five other E. anophelis genomes revealed its potential to participate in horizontal gene transfer. CG analysis revealed that the study isolate has an open pan genome and has undergone extensive gene rearrangements. We demonstrate that the strain is naturally competent, hitherto not reported in any members of Elizabethkingia. Presence of competence related genes, mobile genetic elements, Type IV, VI secretory systems and a unique virulence factor arylsulfatase suggests a different lineage of the strain. Deciphering the genome of E. anophelis having a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes and virulence factors associated with diverse human infections may open up avenues to deal with the myriad of its human infections and devise strategies to combat the pathogen.
