Comparative visualization of the identified plasmids from the CPKP isolates. Four heterogenous plasmids were assembled from the isolates, each carrying resistance genes. A A novel plasmid structure with three integrated types of plasmids, namely IncFIB(pNDM-Mar), IncHI1B(pNDM-MAR), and IncFIB(K), was identified. Furthermore, additional plasmid types of (B) IncR, (C) IncFII and (D) IncX3 were found identical from both CPKP strains. Each plasmid was identified to carry β-lactamase genes, either harboring ESBLs (blaSHV-12, blaCTX-M-14 and blaTEM-1B) or carbapenemase (blaNDM-5)
