Complete Genetic Analysis of Plasmids Carried by Two Nonclonal blaNDM-5- and mcr-1-Bearing Escherichia coli Strains: Insight into Plasmid Transmission among Foodborne Bacteria

ABSTRACT Our objective was to characterize the genetic features of plasmids harbored by two genetically related, MCR-1 and NDM-5-producing Escherichia coli strains recovered from a chicken meat sample. The genetic profiles of all plasmids harbored by the two test strains, namely, 1106 and 1107, were...
