Characterization of a mobilizable megaplasmid carrying multiple resistance genes from a clinical isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

IntroductionThe horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes mediated by plasmids seriously hinders the effectiveness of modern medical treatment, and thus has attracted widespread attention. Additionally, the co-selection mechanism of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and heavy metal resista...
