Whole-Genome Analysis of Antimicrobial-Resistant Isolated from Duck Carcasses in Hanoi, Vietnam.

is one of the most dangerous foodborne pathogens listed by the World Health Organization. In this study, whole-duck samples were collected at wet markets in five districts in Hanoi, Vietnam, in October 2019 to assess their infection rates and evaluate the susceptibility of the isolated strains to antibiotics currently used in the prophylaxis and treatment of infection. Based on the antibiotic resistance profiles, eight multidrug resistance strains were whole-genome-sequenced, and their antibiotic resistance genes, genotypes, multi-locus sequence-based typing (MLST), virulence factors, and plasmids were analyzed.
