CC87 and bacterial conjugation abilities. Efficiency of conjugation of (A) the β-lactamase gene blaTEM between two different donors (E. coli 14 and 38) and CC87 or non-CC87 strains, (B) the ESBL gene blaCTX-M-15 in direction of CC87 or non-CC87 strains, and (C) the same ESBL gene blaCTX-M-15 from CC87 strains to clinical and pathogenic strains. CC87 strains tested: ROAR61, 72, 82, 104 and 205. Non-CC87 strains tested: ROAR28, 79, 155, 171, 394.
