Emergence of the third-generation cephalosporin-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae due to the acquisition of a self-transferable blaDHA-1-carrying plasmid by an ST23 strain

Xie Y, Tian L, Li G, et al. Emergence of the third-generation cephalosporin-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae due to the acquisition of a self-transferable bla_DHA-1-carrying plasmid by an ST23 strain. Virulence. 2018;9:838–844

In the second paragraph of the Introduction, the wrong first author was associated with reference 17. The correct sentence is as follows:

Lin et al. reported a case of recurrent liver abscess caused by hvKP and successfully mimicked the bla_CMY-2 gene transferred from E. coli to K2 hvKP in vitro [17].

The authors apologize for any inconvenience.
