Emergence of plasmid-mediated fosfomycin resistance among Escherichia coli harboring fosA4, tet(X4), and mcr-1 genes in wild birds

Emergence of plasmid-mediated fosfomycin resistance among Escherichia coli harboring fosA4, tet(X4), and mcr-1 genes in wild birds

ABSTRACT Fosfomycin represents a last-line reserve antibiotic for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. Nevertheless, the advent of plasmid-mediated fosfomycin resistance among bacteria from humans and food animals incurs great concern. This study reports the dete...
