From ecology to evolution: plasmid- and colicin-mediated persistence of antibiotic resistant <i>Escherichia coli</i> in gulls Open
Antimicrobial resistance in wildlife is an emerging concern within the One Health concept. Gulls, due to their synanthropic behaviour and long-distance migration, are recognised as vectors and secondary reservoirs of resistant bacteria. Th…

Dynamic changes in the plasmidome and resistome in the gastrointestinal tract of chickens Open
The expansion of intensive poultry farming has led to a substantial increase in antibiotic use, which in turn has promoted the accumulation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The chicken gut serves as a reservoir for these genes and pr…

Genomic characterization of ST38 NDM-5-producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> isolates from an outbreak in the Czech Republic Open
A 2-year national genomic screening in the Czech Republic identified a notable prevalence of the New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase 5 (NDM-5)-producing Escherichia coli sequence type 38 (ST38) in the city of Brno. Forty-two ST38 E. coli isolate…

A novel F type plasmid encoding mcr-10 in a clinical Enterobacter ludwigii strain from a tertiary hospital in the Czech Republic Open
In conclusion, we identified a novel IncF plasmid harbouring mcr-10 gene in a clinical Enterobacter ludwigii strain. To our knowledge, this is the first clinical report of mcr-10 in the Czech Republic.

Broad-Host Dissemination of Plasmids Coharboring the <i>fos</i> Operon for Fructooligosaccharide Metabolism with Antibiotic Resistance Genes Open
It was believed that members of the family Enterobacteriaceae are unable to grow under conditions with short-chain fructooligosaccharides as the only source of carbon. Nevertheless, the first Escherichia coli isolate from chicken intestine…
