Genomewide Analysis of Divergence of Antibiotic Resistance Determinants in Closely Related Isolates of <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>
8 Jun 2010
Abstract excerpt
Multidrug resistance has emerged as a significant concern with infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii. Ample evidence supports the involvement of mobile genetic elements in the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes, but the extent of variability and the rate of genetic change associated with the acquisition of antibiotic resistance have not been studied in detail. Whole-genome sequence analysis of six...
