Genome and plasmid diversity of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-producing Escherichia coli ST131 – tracking phylogenetic trajectories with Bayesian inference
Abstract Clonal lineages of ESBL (Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase)-producing E. coli belonging to sequence type 131 (ST131) have disseminated globally during the last 30 years, leading to an increased prevalence of resistance to fluoroquinolones and extended-spectrum cephalosporins in clinical isolate...
