Abstract
Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium sequence type 34 (ST34) and its monophasic variant (Salmonella 4,[5],12:i:-) are among the most frequently isolated clones from both humans and animals worldwide. Our previous study demonstrated that Salmonella Typhimurium/4,[5],12:i:- strains isolated in Japan could be classified into nine clades and that clade 9 consisted of ST34 strains. In Japan, ST34/clade 9 was first found in the 1990s and has become predominant among food animals in recent years. In the present study, we analyzed the whole genome-based phylogenetic relationships and temporal information of 214 Salmonella Typhimurium/4,[5],12:i:- ST34/clade 9 strains isolated from 1998 to 2017 in Japan. The 214 strains were classified into two sublineages: the newly identified clade 9–2 diverged from clade 9 in the early 2000s and has predominated in recent years. Clonally expanding subclades in clades 9–1 or 9–2 lacked Gifsy-1 or HP1 prophages, respectively, and some strains in these subclades acquired plasmids encoding antimicrobial resistance genes. Additional genome reduction around the fljB gene encoding the phase 2-H antigen was generated by an IS26-mediated deletion adjacent to the transposon in clade 9–2. Although most of the clade 9 strains were isolated from cattle in Japan, the clonally expanding subclades in clade 9–2 (i.e., all and 24% strains of subclades 9–2a and 9–2b, respectively) were isolated from swine. The spread of clade 9 in recent years among food animals in Japan was responsible for the emergence of multiple host-adapted sublineages involving the clonally expanding subclades generated by mobile genetic element-mediated microevolution.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovar 4,[5],12:i:-, so-called Typhimurium monophasic variant, has become one of the most frequently isolated serovars both in humans and in animals all over the world. The increasing prevalence of mcr-1-carrying Salmonella poses significant global health concerns. However, the potential role of Salmonella 4,[5],12:i:- in mcr-1 gene migration through the food chain to the human remains obscure. Here, we investigated 337 Salmonella isolates from apparently healthy finishing pigs, which is rarely studied, obtained from pig farms and slaughterhouses in China. The mcr-1 gene was found in four colistin-resistant S. enterica 4,[5],12:i:- isolates. Notably, all four isolates belonged to sequence type 34 (ST34) with multidrug resistance phenotype. Further genomic sequencing and antimicrobial resistance characterization confirmed that mcr was responsible for the colistin resistance, and the conjugation assay demonstrated that three of four isolates carried mcr-1 in IncHI2 plasmid. Importantly, mcr-1 and class-1 integron were found to co-localize in two strains with IncHI2 plasmid. By collecting all the mcr-1-carrying Typhimurium and monophasic variant strains across the food chain (farm animals, animal-origin food, and humans), our phylogenomic analysis of available 66 genomes, including four strains in this study, demonstrated an independent phylogenetic cluster of all eight Chinese swine-originated isolates and one human isolate. Together, this study provides direct evidence for clonal and pork-borne transmission of mcr-1 by Salmonella 4,[5],12:i:- ST34 in China and highlighted a domestication pathway by acquisition of additional antimicrobial resistance determinants in Chinese ST34 isolates.

A Simple and Robust Statistical Method to Define Genetic Relatedness of Samples Related to Outbreaks at the Genomic Scale - Application to Retrospective Salmonella Foodborne Outbreak Investigations.

Abstract
The investigation of foodborne outbreaks (FBOs) from genomic data typically relies on inspecting the relatedness of samples through a phylogenomic tree computed on either SNPs, genes, kmers, or alleles (i.e., cgMLST and wgMLST). The phylogenomic reconstruction is often time-consuming, computation-intensive and depends on hidden assumptions, pipelines implementation and their parameterization. In the context of FBO investigations, robust links between isolates are required in a timely manner to trigger appropriate management actions. Here, we propose a non-parametric statistical method to assert the relatedness of samples (i.e., outbreak cases) or whether to reject them (i.e., non-outbreak cases). With typical computation running within minutes on a desktop computer, we benchmarked the ability of three non-parametric statistical tests (i.e., Wilcoxon rank-sum, Kolmogorov–Smirnov and Kruskal–Wallis) on six different genomic features (i.e., SNPs, SNPs excluding recombination events, genes, kmers, cgMLST alleles, and wgMLST alleles) to discriminate outbreak cases (i.e., positive control: C+) from non-outbreak cases (i.e., negative control: C−). We leveraged four well-characterized and retrospectively investigated FBOs of Salmonella Typhimurium and its monophasic variant S. 1,4,[5],12:i:- from France, setting positive and negative controls in all the assays. We show that the approaches relying on pairwise SNP differences distinguished all four considered outbreaks in contrast to the other tested genomic features (i.e., genes, kmers, cgMLST alleles, and wgMLST alleles). The freely available non-parametric method written in R has been designed to be independent of both the phylogenomic reconstruction and the detection methods of genomic features (i.e., SNPs, genes, kmers, or alleles), making it widely and easily usable to anybody working on genomic data from suspected samples.

Abstract
A colistin-resistant Salmonella enterica 4, [5],12:i:- sequence type (ST) 34 harbouring mcr-3.1 was recovered from a patient who travelled to China 2 weeks prior to diarrhoea onset. Genomic analysis revealed the presence of the mcr-3.1 gene located in the globally disseminated IncHI2 plasmid, highlighting the intercontinental dissemination of the colistin-resistant S. enterica 4, [5],12:i:- ST34 pandemic clone.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovar 4,[5],12:i:- (S. 4,[5],12:i:-) is an emerging foodborne pathogen causing salmonellosis in humans and animals. Probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) is an effective strategy for controlling enteric infections through maintaining gut microbiota homeostasis and regulating the intestinal innate immune response. Here, LGG was orally administrated to newly weaned piglets for 1 week before S. 4,[5],12:i:- challenge. S. 4,[5],12:i:- challenge led to disturbed gut microbiota, characterized by increased levels of Psychrobacter, Chryseobacterium indoltheticum, and uncultured Corynebacteriaceae populations, as well as an aberrant correlation network in Prevotellaceae NK3B31 group-centric species. The beneficial effect of LGG correlated with attenuating the expansion of Prevotellaceae NK3B31 group. Fusobacterium only found in the pigs treated with LGG was positively correlated with Lactobacillus animalis and Propionibacterium. Administration of LGG induced the expansion of CD3-CD19-T-bet+IFNγ+ and CD3-CD19-T-bet+IFNγ- cell subsets in the peripheral blood at 24 h after a challenge of S. 4,[5],12:i:-. S. 4,[5],12:i:- infection increased the population of intraepithelial CD3-CD19-T-bet+IFNγ+ and CD3-CD19-T-bet+IFNγ- cells in the ileum; however, this increase was attenuated via LGG administration. Correlation analysis revealed that LGG enriched Flavobacterium frigidarium and Facklamia populations, which were negatively correlated with intraepithelial CD3-CD19-T-bet+IFNγ+ and CD3-CD19-T-bet+IFNγ- cells in the ileum. The present data suggest that probiotic LGG alters gut microbiota with associated CD3-CD19-T-bet+IFNγ+/- cell subset homeostasis in pigs challenged with S. enterica 4,[5],12:i:-. LGG may be used in potential gut microbiota-targeted therapy regimens to regulate the specific immune cell function and, consequently, control enteric infections.
