Transposable element carrying bla_KPC, virulence factors and capsular diversity as revealed by wzi typing in the bla_KPC harboring K. pneumoniae isolates, identified by year of isolation and ST. Indicated in red are isolates corresponding to the first bla_KPC-harboring isolates reported in Colombia; in blue is the oldest bla_KPC-harboring CG258 isolate found in our collection; in green is the index isolate from the “Israeli clone”. Genes encoding for the main virulence factors described in K. pneumoniae are grouped (type 3 fimbriae, yerisiniabactin, iron transporter, colibactin); a dot indicates presence of at least one gene from the group, blank indicates absence. Each wzi type is indicated by a different color. For the transposable element, ND indicates not determined.
