International spread of emerging multidrug-resistant Rhodococcus equi

A multidrug-resistant (MDR) Rhodococcus equi clone 2287 emerged and has been expanding across horse farms in the United States (US). We report the genomes of the first documented non-US MDR R. equi 2287 isolates, recovered in Ireland.

多重耐药（multidrug-resistant, MDR）马红球菌（Rhodococcus equi）克隆株2287已被发现，并在美国（US）的多个马场中持续扩散蔓延。本研究报道了首批经文献记载的非美国来源的MDR马红球菌2287分离株的全基因组序列，这些分离株于爱尔兰地区被成功分离。
