Hypervirulent and hypermucoviscous extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Klebsiella variicola in Chile

Hypervirulent and hypermucoviscous extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Klebsiella variicola in Chile

Convergence of virulence and antibiotic-resistance has been reported in Klebsiella pneumoniae, but not in Klebsiella variicola. We, hereby, report the detection and genomic characterization of hypervirulent and hypermucoviscous K. pneumoniae and K.variicola recovered in Chile from health-care associ...
