Whole genome sequencing and antimicrobial resistance analysis of Vibrio parahaemolyticus Vp2015094 carrying an antimicrobial-resistant plasmid

Vibrio parahaemolyticus Vp2015094 exhibited multi-antimicrobial resistance that was mediated by chromosome and plasmid. Plasmid and transposon were speculated to be responsible for the dissemination of ARGs. This study provided an understanding of the genetic mechanisms of AMR of V. parahaemolyticus from seafood, which needs continued monitoring.
