• Antibiotic resistance. (2013, background): “Above all the emerence of the ESBLs has led to “revitalization” of structural analysis f resistance plasmids as an essential prerequisite to molecular epiemiology of resistance (Carattoli, 2013).”
• Dissemination of Antimicrobial Resistance in Microbial Ecosystems through Horizontal Gene Transfer (2016, background): “Of particular concern is the increasingly reported spread of plasmids harboring carbapenem resistance (Carattoli, 2013) and the recent discovery of plasmid-encoded colistin resistance in China (Liu et al., 2015), which has now already been identified at multiple continents (Arcilla et al., 2015)…”
• Antibiotic Resistance Mechanisms in Bacteria: Relationships Between Resistance Determinants of Antibiotic Producers, Environmental Bacteria, and Clinical Pathogens (2018, background): “Some of the most successful known plasmids are the ones that have resulted in the spread of carbapenemase, blaCTX−M ESBL, and quinolone resistance genes among Gram-negative bacteria over very large geographical distances (Carattoli, 2013).”
• The Role of Epidemic Resistance Plasmids and International High-Risk Clones in the Spread of Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (2015, background): “The horizontal transfer of plasmids containing resistance genes is an essential mechanism for the dispersion of antimicrobial resistance (7).”
• Antimicrobial Resistance in Escherichia coli (2018, background): “A plasmid multilocus sequence typing scheme assigns members of the most common plasmid families to pSTs to trace epidemic plasmids (47).”
