The Evolutionary Trend and Genomic Features of an Emerging Lineage of Elizabethkingia anophelis Strains in Taiwan

Abstract excerpt

Elizabethkingia anophelis is an emerging multidrug resistant pathogen caused several global outbreaks recently. E. anophelis was frequently misidentified as E. meningoseptica in the past by conventional culture methods; therefore, the prevalence was often underestimated. Through revised identification, an increasing trend of E. anophelis infection was noted in a tertiary hospital and a dominant lineage of strains...
