Silent spread of mcr-9 in ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae clinical isolates, Jimma, Ethiopia

Mobile colistin resistance (MCR) genes, have been increasingly identified worldwide, but their presence and characteristics in Africa remain poorly understood. Herein, we characterized a silent mcr-9 gene carried in Enterobacteriaceae from Ethiopia. In a study investigating genomic epidemiology of E...
