Occurrence of colistin-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella variicola [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2018 A colistin-resistant mucoid Klebsiella strain was recovered from the blood of a patient in China. Hypervirulence has been reported in Klebsiella pneumoniae, but not in other Klebsiella spp. The strain was suspected to be hypervirulent and was therefore characterized.The strain was subjected to genome sequencing using both the short-read Illumina HiSeq ...

Tracking key virulence loci encoding aerobactin and salmochelin siderophore synthesis in Klebsiella pneumoniae. [PDF]
, 2018 BACKGROUND: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a recognised agent of multidrug-resistant (MDR) healthcare-associated infections; however, individual strains vary in their virulence potential due to the presence of mobile accessory genes.

Amphibian chytridiomycosis : a review with focus on fungus-host interactions [PDF]
, 2015 Amphibian declines and extinctions are emblematic for the current sixth mass extinction event. Infectious drivers of these declines include the recently emerged fungal pathogens Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans ...

Hypervirulent antibiotic-resistantClostridium difficilein Europe [PDF]
Microbial Ecology in Health & Disease, 2008 Recently, several Clostridium difficile outbreaks due to PCR ribotype 027, associated with increased disease severity and death, have been reported in North America and in several European countries. This strain is toxinA/toxinB-positive, contains the genes for binary toxin and has an 18 bp deletion and a frameshift mutation in the gene tcdC ...

Sputum Gram stain of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae
Journal of General and Family Medicine, 2023 Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae has virulence genes relevant to capsule overproduction, which could lead to the finding of thick transparent area ("halo") in Gram stain. In sputum Gram stain, observation of a large Gram-negative rod with a thick capsule may not only indicate that it is K. pneumoniae but also that it is a highly virulent strain.
