The genus includes species present in various environments and known for antibiotic resistance. However, only hospital-associated have been extensively studied regarding antibiotic resistance. Thus, to fill the gap in knowledge on antibiotic resistance among other spp., we investigated 41 isolates from soil samples taken in the Białowieża National Park in Northeastern Poland. This unique forest without notable anthropogenic influence, provides excellent conditions for research of antibiotic resistance from the perspective of natural environments. The phylogeny trees obtained based on the nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene and gene grouped the isolates into clusters belonging to the , , and groups, originating from the lineage. All isolates under study demonstrated resistance to at least 12 out of the 24 antibiotics tested. Resistance to colistin, cefotaxime, and imipenem was detected in 73, 73, and 17% of the isolates, respectively. Most isolates showing resistance to imipenem and colistin clustered within the . group. Seven isolates were highly multi-resistant, to up to 18 of the 24 antibiotics tested. The presence of resistance genes related to intrinsic resistance of has been confirmed in environmental isolates.
该属包括存在于各种环境中且以抗生素抗性闻名的物种。然而,仅对与医院相关的物种在抗生素抗性方面进行了广泛研究。因此,为填补关于其他物种抗生素抗性知识的空白,我们调查了从波兰东北部比亚沃维耶扎国家公园采集的土壤样本中的41株分离株。这片没有显著人为影响的独特森林,从自然环境角度为抗生素抗性研究提供了绝佳条件。基于16S rRNA基因和基因的核苷酸序列获得的系统发育树将分离株分为属于、和组的簇,这些簇源自谱系。所有研究的分离株对所测试的24种抗生素中的至少12种表现出抗性。分别在73%、73%和17%的分离株中检测到对黏菌素、头孢噻肟和亚胺培南的抗性。大多数对亚胺培南和黏菌素表现出抗性的分离株聚集在组内。7株分离株具有高度多重抗性,对所测试的24种抗生素中的多达18种具有抗性。在环境分离株中已证实存在与固有抗性相关的抗性基因。
