  Egan, Kevin; Ross, R. Paul; Hill, Colin (Portland Press, 2017-04-07)

  Antibiotics have revolutionised the treatment of infectious disease and improved the lives of billions of people worldwide over many decades. With the rise in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and corresponding lack of ...
• Biodiversity of lactococcal bacteriophages and associated phage-host interactions 

  Oliveira, Joana (University College Cork, 2017)

  Lactococcus lactis represents one of the most intensely exploited species of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) for dairy fermentations. The intensive and repeated application of lactococcal strains or strain blends in dairy ...
• Comparative and functional genomic analysis of dairy lactococci 

  Kelleher, Philip (University College Cork, 2017)

  Lactococcus lactis has been exploited for thousands of years for the production of fermented dairy products, and from an economic perspective has become one of the most valuable bacteria. L. lactis is used predominantly ...
• Genetic, enzymatic and metabolite profiling of the Lactobacillus casei group reveals strain biodiversity and potential applications for flavour diversification 

  Stefanovic, Ewelina; Kilcawley, Kieran N.; Rea, Mary C.; Fitzgerald, Gerald F.; McAuliffe, Olivia (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2017-04-04)

  Aims: The Lactobacillus casei group represents a widely explored group of lactic acid bacteria, characterized by a high level of biodiversity. In this study, the genetic and phenotypic diversity of a collection of more ...
