Genomically defined hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae contributed to early-onset increased mortality

Nature Communications
The presence of all five of the virulence-associated genes iucA, iroB, peg-344, rmpA, and rmpA2 is presently the most accurate genomic means for predicting hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp-p).
