Frequent emergence and limited geographic dispersal of methicillin-resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>

4 Sept 2008

Abstract excerpt

A small number of clonal lineages dominates the global population structure of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), resulting in the concept that MRSA has emerged on a few occasions after penicillinase-stable beta-lactam antibiotics were introduced to clinical practice, followed by intercontinental spread of individual clones. We investigated the evolutionary history of an MRSA clone (ST5) by...
