Detection of the mcr‐1 gene in colistin‐resistant Escherichia coli from retail meat in Japan

ABSTRACT In this study, the presence of the mcr‐1 gene in Escherichia coli from retail meat in Japan was investigated. Nine E. coli isolates (eight from chickens and one from pork) carried the mcr‐1 gene on the plasmid. In six isolates from domestic chickens, mcr‐1 was located on the IncI2 plasmid,...
