Plus signs indicate present. Minus signs indicate absent. Abbreviations: MLST, multilocus sequence typing: WT, wild type.
All blaKPC-3, as determined by sequencing.
WT indicates non-extended-spectrum β-lactamase blaSHV and blaTEM genes, which were confirmed by sequence analysis (ie, blaSHV-11 and blaTEM-1, respectively).
