Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have shown that the increased prevalent ST764 clone in China, Japan, and other Asian areas. However, the knowledge of the genetic features and virulence characteristics of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) ST764 in China is still limited. In this study, we identified 52 ST764-SCCmec type II isolates collected from five cities in China between 2014 and 2021. Whole genome...
