Detection of plasmid-mediated colistin-resistance genes in Enterobacteriaceae isolates from food-producing animals and meat. Identification of the novel variant mcr-3, Portugal, 2010-2015.

Following the original report of plasmid-mediated colistin resistance (PMCR) in China, several studies in different countries reported a worldwide distribution of the mcr-1 gene in Enterobacteriaceae.
