2021-05-19
Abstract excerpt
Klebsiella pneumoniae associated with hospital acquired infections in South Asia are frequently extensively-drug resistant (XDR), making treatment and control problematic. It is important to understand the epidemiology and genetic structure of XDR K. pneumoniae and to determine their potential to be hypervirulent (hv) through the presence of siderophores. Here, we characterized the genomes of 20 colistin-resistant...
