Existing rooting methods are hampered by evolutionary rate heterogeneity or the unavailability of auxiliary phylogenetic information. We present a novel rooting approach, the minimal ancestor deviation (MAD) method, which embraces heterotachy by utilizing all pairwise topological and metric information in unrooted trees. We demonstrate the method in comparison to existing rooting methods by the analysis of phylogenies from eukaryotes and prokaryotes. MAD correctly recovers the kno wn root of eukaryotes and uncovers evidence for cyanobacteria origins in the ocean. MAD is more robust and co nsistent than existing methods, provides measures of the root inference quality, and is applicable to any tree with branch lengths. -

The Distribution of Microbiomes and Resistomes Across Farm Environments in Conventional and Organic Dairy Herds in Pennsylvania Dipti W
Pitta et al. Environmental Microbiome (2020) 15:21 Environmental Microbiome https://doi.org/10.1186/s40793-020-00368-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The distribution of microbiomes and resistomes across farm environments in conventional and organic dairy herds in Pennsylvania Dipti W. Pitta* , Nagaraju Indugu, John D. Toth, Joseph S. Bender, Linda D. Baker, Meagan L. Hennessy, Bonnie Vecchiarelli, Helen Aceto and Zhengxia Dou Abstract Background: Antimicrobial resistance is a serious concern. Although the widespread use of antimicrobials in livestock has exacerbated the emergence and dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARG) in farm environments, little is known about whether antimicrobial use affects distribution of ARG in livestock systems. This study compared the distribution of microbiomes and resistomes (collections of ARG) across different farm sectors in dairy herds that differed in their use of antimicrobials. Feces from heifers, non-lactating, and lactating cows, manure storage, and soil from three conventional (antimicrobials used to treat cows) and three organic (no antimicrobials used for at least four years) farms in Pennsylvania were sampled. Samples were extracted for genomic DNA, processed, sequenced on the Illumina NextSeq platform, and analyzed for microbial community and resistome profiles using established procedures. Results: Microbial communities and resistome profiles clustered by sample type across all farms. Overall, abundance and diversity of ARG in feces was significantly higher in conventional herds compared to organic herds. The ARG conferring resistance to betalactams, macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin (MLS), and tetracyclines were significantly higher in fecal samples of dairy cows from conventional herds compared to organic herds. Regardless of farm type, all manure storage samples had greater diversity (albeit low abundance) of ARG conferring resistance to aminoglycosides, tetracyclines, MLS, multidrug resistance, and phenicol. -
Examining the Antimicrobial Activity of Cefepime-Taniborbactam
Examining the antimicrobial activity of cefepime-taniborbactam (formerly cefepime/VNRX-5133) against Burkholderia species isolated from cystic fibrosis patients in the United States Elise T. Zeiser1, Scott A. Becka1, John J. LiPuma2, David A. Six 3, Greg Moeck 3, and Krisztina M. Papp-Wallace1,4 1Veterans Affairs Northeast Ohio Healthcare System, Cleveland, OH; 2University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI; 3Venatorx 4 Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Malvern, PA; and Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract Results Background: Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc), a group of >20 related species, and B. gladioli are 60 opportunistic human pathogens that cause chronic infections in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) or cefepime compromised immune systems. Ceftazidime and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole are first-line agents used to treat infections due to Burkholderia spp. However, these species have developed resistance to cefepime-taniborbactam many antibiotics, including first-line therapies. β-lactam resistance in Burkholderia species is largely 40 mediated by PenA-like chromosomal class A β-lactamases. A novel investigational β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combination, cefepime-taniborbactam (formerly cefepime/VNRX-5133) demonstrates potent antimicrobial activity against gram-negative bacteria producing class A, B, C, and D β-lactamases. The activity of cefepime-taniborbactam was investigated against Bcc and B. gladioli; moreover, the biochemical activity of taniborbactam against the PenA1 carbapenemase was evaluated. 20 Methods: CLSI-based agar dilution antimicrobial susceptibility testing using cefepime and cefepime combined with taniborbactam at 4 mg/L was conducted against a curated panel of 150 Burkholderia species obtained from the Burkholderia cepacia Research Laboratory and Repository. Isolates were Number isolates of recovered from respiratory specimens from 150 different individuals with CF receiving care in 68 cities 0 throughout 36 states within the United States. -
