Enterobacter cloacae comparative and genomic diversity from East Africa
The Enterobacter cloacae is a common nosocomial pathogens capable of producing a wide variety of infections. Broad-spectrum antibiotic resistance, including the recent emergence of resistance to last-resort carbapenems, has led to increased interest in this group of organisms and carbapenem-resistant E. cloacae complex (CREC) in particular. We performed Whole-genome sequencing and comparative genomics of isolates from stool and environment sources in Tanzania and Uganda
