IncHI1 plasmids mediated the tet(X4) gene spread in Enterobacteriaceae in porcine
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 The tigecycline resistance gene tet(X4) was widespread in various bacteria. However, limited information about the plasmid harboring the tet(X4) gene spread among the different species is available.
