The Group1 plasmid (135.7 Kb) refers as CTX-M-27-encoding IncF[F1:A2:B20] plasmids, Group2 (143.7 Kb) plasmid as CTX-M-15-encoding IncF[F2:A1:B-] plasmids, and pU1 (144 Kb) as IncF[F1:A1:B16] plasmid. The Ec1, Ec3, Ec3 correspond to ST131 C2/H30Rx isolates, Ec4, Ec5 correspond to ST131 C1-M27 isolates and Ec6 corresponds to ST1193
