Beautiful work from Jay Winans in the Nadell Lab @dartmouthartsci.bsky.social showing IncF plasmid pED208 spreading like wildfire through E. coli biofilms www.cell.com/current-biol...
Bacterial conjugation can restructure biofilms and increase their resilience while constraining host cell dispersal
Winans et al. show how plasmid transfer can reorganize bacterial communities into dense aggregates, conferring antibiotic and phage tolerance to otherwise sensitive host cells. Conjugation-dependent a...

Discrepancies in IncF plasmid subtyping? A study on >70,000 E. coli genomes found 8% showed pMLST issues: multiple replicons, overlaps, inconsistent calls. 3rd gen sequencing proves essential to fully resolve these mobile genetic elements.

The presence of multiple variants of IncF plasmid alleles in a single genome sequence can hinder accurate replicon sequence typing using in silico pMLST tools - PubMed
Plasmid sequence type is crucial for describing IncF plasmids due to their capacity to carry important antibiotic and virulence gene cargo and consequently due to their association with disease-causin...
