Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To analyse macrolide resistance in a Macrococcus canis strain isolated from a dog with an ear infection, and determine whether the resistance mechanism is also present in other bacteria, and associated with mobile genetic elements. METHODS: The whole genome of M. canis Epi0082 was sequenced using PacBio and Illumina technologies. Novel macrolide resistance determinants were identified through...
