Background: The aim was to investigate the distribution of antibiotic resistance determinants and virulence factors in a group of carbapenem non-susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa).

Methods: From March 2018 to May 2019, a total of 98 P.

Background: Nine gene clusters dedicated to nonribosomal synthesis of secondary metabolites with possible antimicrobial action, including polymyxin and fusaricidin, were detected within the whole genome sequence of the plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) Paenibacillus polymyxa M-1. To survey the antimicrobial compounds expressed by M-1 we analyzed the active principle suppressing phytopathogenic Erwinia spp.

Results: P.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to explore how multi-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumonia (MDR-KPN) develops resistance to quinolone antibiotics.
  • A total of 47 MDR-KPN strains from six hospitals in China were analyzed for specific mutations and resistance genes responsible for quinolone resistance using PCR and DNA sequencing.
  • The findings revealed high mutation rates in genes related to quinolone resistance, identified novel genetic variants, and marked the first global report of the qnrS4 variant.
