The global emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among pathogens is a major public health crisis that might soon lead to a post-antibiotic era. Klebsiella pneumoniae, included in the World Health Organization list of critical priority pathogens, is an emerging threat to global health owing to the rapid rise of convergent AMR and hypervirulent strains. Comprehensive epidemiology of AMR-hypervirulent determinants in K.

In recent years, the rise of community-acquired infections resistant to antibiotics has drawn renewed attention to the environmental compartment, in particular for pathogens found in aquaculture systems. We quantified the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in isolated from the Cochin Estuary as well as the adjoining shrimp farms, and seafood from markets.
