Genome characteristics of the optrA-positive Clostridium perfringens strain QHY-2 carrying a novel plasmid type

ABSTRACT Clostridium perfringens is a bacterial species of importance to both public and animal health. The gene optrA is the first gene that confers resistance to the tedizolid, a last-resort antimicrobial agent in human medicine. Herein, we whole-genome sequenced and analyzed one optrA-positive C....
