*Includes predicted transposases in close proximity of the resistance gene clusters (or predicted IME containing the AMR gene cluster) and the predicated contig origin. AMR, antimicrobial resistance; IME, integrative mobilizable elements.
†AMR genes present on the same contig (genes are listed in alphabetical order).
‡Determined by using ISfinder for transposases and ICEberg for IME.
§Determined by using mlplasmids. Values in parentheses indicate (range of) posterior probability of belonging to either a plasmid or chromosome. For predicted plasmids, the best hit in the National Center for Biotechnology Information nucleotide database is also listed, with its corresponding query coverage and percentage identity, respectively, in parentheses.
