Mcr-1-Harboring Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Sequence Type 34 in Pigs, China.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We detected the mcr-1 gene in 21 (14.8%) Salmonella isolates from pigs at slaughter; 19 were serovar Typhimurium sequence type 34. The gene was located on IncHI2-like plasmids that also harbored IncF replicons and lacked a conjugative transfer region. These findings highlight the need to prevent further spread of colistin resistance in animals and humans.
