A team of researchers have sequenced and analyzed the genome of Shigella sonnei, the bacteria that is involved in 2014 and 2015 shigellosis outbreaks in California. The researchers identified how the S. sonnei acquired antibiotic resistance and toxin genes, which made the bacteria more virulent than ever before.
