Whole genome sequence of blaNDM and blaKPC co-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate KSH203 with capsular serotype K25 belonging to ST11 from China

ConclusionIn this study, we illustrate the whole genome sequence of high biofilm-forming capacity, hypermucoviscous K. pneumoniae isolate KSH203 with capsular serotype K25 belonging to ST11 isolated from a patient in China, which carried a large number of antimicrobial resistance genes and virulence-associated genes. Future studies are needed to be aware of dissemination of this type of strain among environmental, animal and human isolates.
