Phage resistance formation and fitness costs of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae mediated by K2 capsule-specific phage and the corresponding mechanisms

IntroductionPhage is promising for the treatment of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) infections. Although phage resistance seems inevitable, we found that there still was optimization space in phage therapy for hvKP infection.MethodsThe clinical isolate K. pneumoniae FK1979 was used to rec...
