A Florfenicol-Resistant Plasmid Shuttling Between and .

Porcine contagious pleuropneumonia, caused by , has resulted in significant economic losses to the swine industry. Although antibiotics are commonly employed to control this disease, their widespread use or misuse can lead to the development of antibiotic resistance in Consequently, it is crucial to conduct antimicrobial susceptibility testing on clinical isolates. In our study, we identified one strain of with resistance to florfenicol and extracted a 5919 bp plasmid named pAPPJY, which confers florfenicol resistance.

Discovery of a Novel Integrative Conjugative Element ICEChn2 Related to SXT/R391 in .

The objective of this study was to characterize ICEChn2, a novel SXT/R391-related integration and conjugation element (ICE) carrying 19 drug resistance genes, in a clinical isolate of from swine. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) of CP063424 strain was completed using a combination of third-generation PacBio and second-generation Illumina. The putative ICE was predicted by the online tool ICEfinder.

Pili Subunit PilA Contributes to the Cytoadhesion of to Host Cells and Provides Immunoprotection.

Glaesserella parasuis (G. parasuis) is commonly located in the upper respiratory tract of pigs as an opportunistic pathogen. It can cause Glässer's disease, which leads to serious economic losses in the swine industry.
