IncK plasmids are some of the main carriers of and genes and show high similarity to other plasmids belonging to the I complex, including IncB/O plasmids. Here, we studied the phylogenetic relationship of 37 newly sequenced IncK and IncB/O plasmids. We show that IncK plasmids can be divided into two compatible lineages named IncK1 and IncK2.
IncK质粒是某些抗性基因的主要载体,与属于I复合体的其他质粒(包括IncB/O质粒)具有高度相似性。在此,我们研究了37个新测序的IncK和IncB/O质粒的系统发育关系。我们发现IncK质粒可分为两个兼容的谱系,分别命名为IncK1和IncK2。
