Occurrence of mcr-1 in Escherichia coli from rabbits of intensive farming.
Veterinary Microbiology 2018 December
The emergence of mobile colistin resistance genes (mcr) is yet another challenge in the fight against antimicrobial resistance, with reports proving the dissemination of these genes in different countries and different environments being of great concern. In the present study, we describe the recovery of three E. coli strains with mcr-1 gene in IncHI2 plasmids from intestinal content of necropsied meat rabbits reared in two intensive production systems in Portugal. Our findings are worrisome, given the high level of dependence on the usage of antibiotics in rabbit rearing and call for the development and implementation of an active surveillance system in this species.
