Combining sequencing approaches to fully resolve a carbapenemase-encoding megaplasmid in a Pseudomonas shirazica clinical strain
ABSTRACTHorizontal transfer of plasmids plays a pivotal role in dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes and emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Plasmid sequencing is thus paramount for accurate epidemiological tracking in hospitals and routine surveillance. Combining Nanopore and Illumin...
