Fig. 1From: Evolution of carbapenem resistance in klebsiella pneumoniae and escherichia coli carrying blaNDM−1 gene: imipenem exposure results in sustained resistance memory of strains in vitroThe β-lactamases genes carried by K.pneumoniae and E.coli strains. Based on the neighbor-joining method, the phylogenetic tree was constructed by comparing the 16SrDNA sequences of K.pneumoniae (A) and E.coli strains (B). The β-Lactamases genes of blaSHV (red), blaTEM−1 (yellow), blaCTX−M−9 (green), blaIMP (blue), and blaNDM−1 (purple) amplified by PCR were placed on the right side of the strain, but this did not indicate the location of these genes in the genome of the strainBack to article page
