Overview

We identified an -carrying integrative and conjugative element, ICE_erm42, in 26.4% of multidrug-resistant serovar Albany isolates recovered from human salmonellosis between 2014 and 2019 in Taiwan. ICE_erm42-carrying strains displayed high-level resistance to azithromycin and the element could move into the phylogenetically distant via conjugation.
