Post-infection colonization and recurrent infections by ST11-KL64 carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae: a study of within-host evolution
ABSTRACT Bacteria pose a serious threat to hosts through adaptive mutations that confer stress resistance and promote persistent colonization. Here, we describe an adaptive evolution event involving eight highly similar ST11-KL64 carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) strains, isolated from a non-infected in...
