PRO/EDR> Antibiotic resistance (03): USA (TX) MDR K. pneumoniae, CG307 predominant clone

Klebsiella pneumoniae -- United States_Klebsiella pneumoniae_ is a major human pathogen responsible for high morbidity and mortality rates. The emergence and spread of strains resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents and documented large nosocomial outbreaks are especially concerning. To develop new therapeutic strategies for _K. pneumoniae_, it is imperative to understand the population genomic structure of strains causing human infections.To address this knowledge gap, we sequenced the genomes Read more [...]
