Abstract excerpt
Background. Pandoraea sputorum is an emerging multidrug-resistant pathogen primarily associated with cystic fibrosis. Bloodstream infections (BSIs) are rare but linked to high mortality. The genomic characteristics and evolutionary history of P. sputorum lineages causing BSIs remain poorly understood.Methods. We performed whole-genome sequencing on 18 P. sputorum isolates recovered from patients with BSIs in...
