Conjugative Transfer of Disease‐Encoding Plasmid Variants in Serratia spp. Alter Production of Enzymes and Virulence Properties

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Analysis of plasmid transconjugants relative to plasmid‐free and plasmid‐carrying Serratia spp. demonstrates erratic disease phenotypes and reduced fitness. Transconjugants also show reduced ability to degrade substrates associated with virulence, supported by transcriptomic data.

Co‐Occurrence of Resistance to Aminoglycosides and Carbapenems in Klebsiella pneumoniae: A Critical Threat to Public Health

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Klebsiella pneumoniae, especially the co‐occurrence of resistance to aminoglycosides and carbapenems, represents a serious threat to global public health. This study reviews the prevalence of this combined resistance, analyzes the underlying mechanisms, and evaluates its impact on clinical practice and public health ...
