Microbiol Spectr . 2023 Oct; 11(6):e0135223. PMID: 37815385
There has been a decrease in healthcare-associated infection in Australia, but an increase in the genetic diversity of infecting strains, and an increase in community-associated cases. Here, we studied the...

Lacey J, Keyburn A, Ford M, Portela R, Johanesen P, Lyras D, et al.
Appl Environ Microbiol . 2017 Oct; 83(24). PMID: 29030439
is a gastrointestinal pathogen capable of causing disease in a variety of hosts. Necrotic enteritis in chickens is caused by strains that produce the pore-forming toxin NetB, the major virulence...

Watts T, Johanesen P, Lyras D, Rood J, Adams V
Plasmid . 2017 Apr; 91:68-75. PMID: 28390955
Clostridium perfringens produces an extensive repertoire of toxins and extracellular enzymes, many of which are intimately involved in the progression of disease and are encoded by genes on conjugative plasmids....

Lacey J, Johanesen P, Lyras D, Moore R
Avian Pathol . 2016 Mar; 45(3):302-7. PMID: 26949841
The investigation of genomic variation between Clostridium perfringens isolates from poultry has been an important tool to enhance our understanding of the genetic basis of strain pathogenicity and the epidemiology...

Awad M, Johanesen P, Carter G, Rose E, Lyras D
Gut Microbes . 2014 Dec; 5(5):579-93. PMID: 25483328
The worldwide emergence of epidemic strains of Clostridium difficile linked to increased disease severity and mortality has resulted in greater research efforts toward determining the virulence factors and pathogenesis mechanisms...
