Figure 2

Comparison of ODM-barcodes for plasmids harboring the blaCTX-M-3 or blaCTX-M-55 gene. The plasmids are grouped based on similarity and the plasmids from the most recent isolates are at the top of each subfigure. The black dots indicate the location of the CTX-M gene. (a) One blaCTX-M-55 (55-2) and two blaCTX-M-3 (3-2-b and 3-3) encoding plasmids with barcodes similar to those of ODM-plasmid group A, here represented by plasmid 15-1. (b) Two blaCTX-M-3-encoding plasmids (3-1 and 3-2-a) have barcodes similar to the blaCTX-M-15 plasmid 15-11 (ODM-plasmid group C). (c) The two blaCTX-M-55-encoding plasmids with nonsimilar barcodes.
