Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (KPC-PA) isolates have quickly expanded in China, especially the high-risk clone ST463. We aimed to explore the evolution of KPC-related plasmids driving ST463 clone success. Whole-genome sequencing of 1258 clinical P.

Methods: The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of strains were determined by broth microdilution methods. The mutant genes were identified by the whole genome sequencing results.
