Abstract

Whole-genome sequencing was used to identify mutations in antibiotic resistance-conferring genes to compare susceptibility predictions with MICs and to ascertain strain types in 99 isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae . Genotypes associated with susceptibility, as well as MIC creep or emerging resistance, were noted. Phylogenomic analysis revealed three distinctive clades and putative gonococcal transmission linkages involving a tetracycline-resistant N. gonorrhoeae outbreak and the clonal spread of susceptible isolates in men.
