Genomic insights into multidrug resistance in clinical Escherichia albertii: plasmid coexistence, intI1 prevalence, and interspecies dissemination risk
Our findings establish plasmids and <i>intI1</i> as pivotal drivers of MDR in <i>E. albertii</i>, and highlight the associated risks of resistance-virulence co-selection and interspecies plasmid dissemination.
