Plasmid-mediated tigecycline-resistant gene tet(X4) in Escherichia coli from food-producing animals, China, 2008–2018

Plasmid-mediated tigecycline-resistant gene tet(X4) in Escherichia coli from food-producing animals, China, 2008–2018

The recent emergence of plasmid-mediated tigecycline resistance genes, tet(X3) and tet(X4), in animals and humans in China would pose a foreseeable threat to public health. To illustrate this paradigm shift in tigecycline resistance, here, covering the period 2008-2018, we retrospectively analysed a...
