Empirically derived sequence similarity thresholds to study the genomic epidemiology of plasmids shared among healthcare-associated bacterial pathogens
BACKGROUND: Healthcare-associated bacterial pathogens frequently carry plasmids that contribute to antibiotic resistance and virulence. The horizontal transfer of plasmids in healthcare settings has been previously documented, but genomic and epidemiologic methods to study this phenomenon remain und...
