Genomic and phenotypic characterization of respiratory pathogens from CF pediatric patients from Dnipro, Ukraine
This study highlights the genetic and phenotypic complexity of respiratory pathogens in Ukrainian CF children, emphasizing the emergence of ST398 SCVs and the introduction of hypervirulent K. pneumoniae lineages. The findings call for regular genomic surveillance in Ukrainian CF cohorts.
