Isolation of Multidrug-Resistant Stenotrophomonas maltophilia from Cultured Yellowtail (Seriola quinqueradiata) from a Marine Fish Farm
Six strains of multidrug-resistant Stenotrophomonas maltophilia were isolated from cultured yellowtail. The strains were divided into two clusters based on the 16S rRNA genes, and all of them contained L1 metallo-{szligbeta}-lactamase and L2 {szligbeta}-lactamase genes. Differences in the interclust...

Zusammenfassung: | Six strains of multidrug-resistant Stenotrophomonas maltophilia were isolated from cultured yellowtail. The strains were divided into two clusters based on the 16S rRNA genes, and all of them contained L1 metallo-{szligbeta}-lactamase and L2 {szligbeta}-lactamase genes. Differences in the intercluster divergence between the lactamase genes suggest that horizontal transfer of the genes occurred. |
