Contrasting long-term dynamics of antimicrobial resistance and virulence plasmids in Salmonella Typhimurium from animals (2022)
Journal Article
Mellor, K., Blackwell, G., Cawthraw, S., Mensah, N., Reid, S., Thomson, N., …Mather, A. (2022). Contrasting long-term dynamics of antimicrobial resistance and virulence plasmids in Salmonella Typhimurium from animals. Microbial Genomics, 8(8), https://doi.org/10.1099/mgen.0.000826

Plasmids are mobile elements that can carry genes encoding traits of clinical concern, including antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and virulence. Population--level studies of Enterobacterales, including Escherichia coli, Shigella and Klebsiella, indicat...

Detection of Rare Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles by Active and Passive Surveillance Approaches (2016)
Journal Article
Mather, A., Reeve, R., Mellor, D. J., Matthews, L., Reid-Smith, R. J., Dutil, L., …Reid, S. W. J. (2016). Detection of Rare Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles by Active and Passive Surveillance Approaches. PLoS ONE, 11(7), e0158515. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0158515

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance systems are generally not specifically designed to detect emerging resistances and usually focus primarily on resistance to individual drugs. Evaluating the diversity of resistance, using ecological metrics... Read More about Detection of Rare Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles by Active and Passive Surveillance Approaches.

A metapopulation model for highly pathogenic avian influenza: implications for compartmentalization as a control measure (2014)
Journal Article
Nickbakhsh, S., Matthews, L., Reid, S. W. J., & Kao, R. R. (2014). A metapopulation model for highly pathogenic avian influenza: implications for compartmentalization as a control measure. Epidemiology and Infection, 142(9), 1813-1825. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0950268813002963

Although the compartmentalization of poultry industry components has substantial economic implications, and is therefore a concept with huge significance to poultry industries worldwide, the current requirements for compartment status are generic to...
