Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To determine the frequencies and clonal distributions of putative genetic determinants of resistance to antimicrobials applied for treatment of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), as documented in the genomic record. METHODS: We scanned 26 557 C. difficile genome sequences publicly available from the EnteroBase platform for plasmids, point mutations and gene truncations previously reported to...
