Major F plasmid clusters are linked with ColV and pUTI89-like marker genes in bloodstream isolates of Escherichia coli

Abstract Background F plasmids are abundant in E. coli, carrying a variety of genetic cargo involved in fitness, pathogenicity, and antimicrobial resistance. ColV and pUTI89-like plasmids have drawn attention for their potential roles in various forms of extra-intestinal pathogenicity. However, the...
