Evidence of international transmission of mobile colistin resistant monophasic Salmonella Typhimurium ST34.

ABSTRACT: S. 4,[5],12:i:-, a monophasic variant of S. enterica serovar Typhimurium, is an important multidrug resistant serovar. Strains of colistin-resistant S. 4,[5],12:i:- have been reported in several countries with patients occasionally had recent histories of travels to Southeast Asia. In the study herein, we investigated the genomes of S. 4,[5],12:i:- carrying mobile colistin resistance (mcr) gene in Thailand. Three isolates of mcr-3.1 carrying S. 4,[5],12:i:- in Thailand were sequenced by both Illumina and Oxford Nanopore platforms and we analyzed the sequences together with the whole genome sequences of other mcr-3 carrying S. 4,[5],12:i:- isolates available in the NCBI Pathogen Detection database. Three hundred sixty-nine core genome SNVs were identified from 27 isolates, compared to the S
