Genomic characterization of two carbapenem-resistant Serratia marcescens isolates causing bacteremia: Emergence of KPC-2-encoding IncR plasmids

The occurrence and transmission of carbapenemase-producing-Enterobacterales (CPE) on a global scale has become a major issue. Clinical reports are rarely providing information on the genomic and plasmid features of carbapenem-resistant Serratia marcescens. Our objective was to investigate the resist...
