Molecular and Genomic Insights of <i>mcr-1</i>-Producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> Isolates from Piglets

The use of colistin in food-producing animals favors the emergence and spread of colistin-resistant strains. Here, we investigated the occurrence and molecular mechanisms of colistin resistance among <i>E. coli</i> isolates from a Mexican piglet farm. A collection of 175 cephalosporin-re...
