Draft Genome Sequences of a Ceftazidime-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Donor and a Conjugal Escherichia coli Recipient with Acquired Resistance

A ceftazidime-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strain was isolated from hospital wastewater and used as the donor in a filter mating experiment with an Escherichia coli strain as the recipient. Recipient, donor, and transconjugant were sequenced, and both donor and transconjugant were found to harb...

Descripción
Sumario:A ceftazidime-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strain was isolated from hospital wastewater and used as the donor in a filter mating experiment with an Escherichia coli strain as the recipient. Recipient, donor, and transconjugant were sequenced, and both donor and transconjugant were found to harbor highly similar plasmid sequences, suggesting that plasmid transfer had occurred.
