Metagenomic Approaches Reveal Strain Profiling and Genotyping of Klebsiella pneumoniae from Hospitalized Patients in China

ABSTRACT Klebsiella pneumoniae is a leading cause of highly drug-resistant infections in hospitals worldwide. Strain-level bacterial identification on the genetic determinants of multidrug resistance and high pathogenicity is critical for the surveillance and treatment of this clinically relevant pa...
