Abstract excerpt
Plasmids play a pivotal role in the horizontal gene transfer of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and virulence determinants among bacteria. Members of the Klebsiella pneumoniae species complex (KpSC) can colonise humans, animals, and various environments, and frequently cause nosocomial and community-acquired infections in humans. While plasmid-borne AMR genes are prevalent in clinical strains, the diversity, distr...
