Genomic rearrangements uncovered by genome-wide co-evolution analysis of a major nosocomial pathogen <i>Enterococcus faecium</i>
2020-10-20
Abstract excerpt
Enterococcus faecium is a gut commensal of the gastro-digestive tract, but also known as nosocomial pathogen among hospitalized patients. Population genetics based on whole-genome sequencing has revealed that E. faecium strains from hospitalized patients form a distinct clade, designated as clade A1 and that plasmids are major contributors to the emergence of nosocomial E. faecium . Here we further explored the...
