Hidden Resistances: How Routine Whole-Genome Sequencing Uncovered an Otherwise Undetected blaNDM-1 Gene in Vibrio alginolyticus from Imported Seafood

ABSTRACT Vibrio alginolyticus causes vibriosis of marine vertebrates, invertebrates, and humans, and while there have been several reports of multidrug resistance in V. alginolyticus, carbapenem resistance is rare. V. alginolyticus strain AUSMDU00064140 was isolated in Melbourne, Australia, from imp...
