IncHI1 plasmids are epidemic vectors that mediate transmission of tet(X4) in Escherichia coli isolated from China

IntroductionThis study aimed to investigate the genetic factors promoting widespread Q6 dissemination of tet(X4) between Escherichia coli and to characterize the genetic contexts of tet(X4).MethodsWe isolated E. coli from feces, water, soil and flies collected across a large-scale chicken farm in Ch...
