Post-transfer instability, not initial transfer, limits dissemination of IncI1-blaCTX-M-1 plasmids between chicken and human Escherichia coli.
2026-02-21
Abstract excerpt
Plasmids are key vectors in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes. Within Escherichia coli, IncI1 plasmids carrying blaCTX-M-1 significantly contribute to extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) resistance. To investigate their zoonotic dissemination potential, we compared the conjugative transfer rates, post-transfer stability, and short-term evolution of two IncI1-blaCTX-M-1 plasmids transferred from...
