Tracking Recombination Events That Occur in Conjugative Virulence Plasmid p15WZ-82_Vir during the Transmission Process
Although they are often nonconjugative, large virulence plasmids are increasingly detected in clinical K. pneumoniae and contribute to the hypervirulence phenotype of this organism. In this study, we demonstrated that the virulence-encoding region that originated from virulence plasmid pLVPK activel...
