Inter-species geographic signatures for tracing horizontal gene transfer and long-term persistence of carbapenem resistance
Rauf Salamzade, Abigail L. Manson, Bruce J. Walker…·Ashlee M. Earl
The paper develops a method to trace horizontal gene transfer and persistence of carbapenem resistance genes across bacterial species using genomic data from clinical isolates.
