Abstract
Introduction Non-baumannii Acinetobacter species are increasingly isolated in the clinical setting and the environment. The aim of the present study was to analyze a genome database of 837 Acinetobacter spp. isolates, which included 798 non-baumannii Acinetobacter genomes, in order to define the concordance of classification and discriminatory power of 7-gene MLST, 53-gene MLST, and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) phylogenies. Methods Phylogenies were performed on Pasteur Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) or ribosomal Multilocus Sequence Typing (rMLST) concatenated alleles, or SNPs extracted from core genome alignment. Results The Pasteur MLST scheme was able to identify and genotype 72 species in the Acinetobacter genus, with classification results concordant with the ribosomal MLST scheme. The discriminatory power and genotyping reliability of the Pasteur MLST scheme were assessed in comparison to genome-wide SNP phylogeny on 535 non-baumannii Acinetobacter genomes assigned to Acinetobacter pittii, Acinetobacter nosocomialis, Acinetobacter seifertii, and Acinetobacter lactucae (heterotypic synonym of Acinetobacter dijkshoorniae), which were the most clinically relevant non-baumannii species of the A. baumannii group. The Pasteur MLST and SNP phylogenies were congruent at Robinson-Fould and Matching cluster tests and grouped genomes into four and three clusters in A. pittii, respectively, and one each in A. seifertii. Furthermore, A. lactucae genomes were grouped into one cluster within A. pittii genomes. The SNP phylogeny of A. nosocomialis genomes showed a heterogeneous population and did not correspond to the Pasteur MLST phylogeny, which identified two recombinant clusters. The antimicrobial resistance genes belonging to at least three different antimicrobial classes were identified in 91 isolates assigned to 17 distinct species in the Acinetobacter genus. Moreover, the presence of a class D oxacillinase, which is a naturally occurring enzyme in several Acinetobacter species, was found in 503 isolates assigned to 35 Acinetobacter species. Conclusion In conclusion, Pasteur MLST phylogeny of non-baumannii Acinetobacter isolates coupled with in silico detection of antimicrobial resistance makes it important to study the population structure and epidemiology of Acinetobacter spp. isolates.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To characterize the genetic environment of metallo-β-lactamases (MBL) in carbapenem-resistant clinical Acinetobacter pittii isolates. METHODS Seventeen carbapenem-resistant A. pittii isolates harbouring an MBL were collected between 2010 and 2015 in Germany. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using agar dilution. Presence of MBLs was confirmed by PCR and their genetic location determined by S1-pulsed-field gel electrophoresis followed by Southern blot hybridization. Whole-genome sequencing was performed using the Miseq and MinION platforms. Isolates were typed using an ad hoc core genome MLST scheme. Conjugation into A. baumannii was tested by broth mating. RESULTS In 10 isolates the MBL was plasmid-encoded and in seven isolates chromosomally encoded. blaGIM-1 and blaVIM-2 were plasmid-encoded, blaVIM-4 was chromosomally encoded, while blaNDM-1 was chromosomally encoded in four and plasmid-encoded in three isolates. Seven of ten plasmids were conjugative into A. baumannii. Although most isolates were unrelated, the backbones of the MBL-encoding plasmid showed >99% similarity and only differed in the MBL-encoding area. blaNDM-1-harbouring plasmids were highly similar to other plasmids from Acinetobacter isolates worldwide while the blaVIM-2- and blaGIM-1-encoding plasmids have not been described. CONCLUSIONS These data show the existence of a promiscuous plasmid circulating in A. pittii isolates in Germany that differs only in the MBL-encoding region. Its plasmid backbone has been found globally among multiple Acinetobacter spp. These data should raise awareness of an epidemic conjugative plasmid that has independently acquired MBLs. We should also consider that future comparative plasmid analysis will look beyond solely the resistome and include the mobile elements carrying the resistance genes.

Abstract
Objective To characterize one KL38-OCL6-ST220 carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter pittii strain, co-producing chromosomal NDM-1 and OXA-820 carbapenemases. Methods A. pittii TCM strain was isolated from a bloodstream infection (BSI). Antimicrobial susceptibility tests were conducted via disc diffusion and broth microdilution. Stability experiments of blaNDM-1 and blaOXA-820 carbapenemase genes were further performed. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was performed on the Illumina and Oxford Nanopore platforms. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was analyzed based on the Pasteur and Oxford schemes. Resistance genes, virulence factors, and insertion sequences (ISs) were identified with ABRicate based on ResFinder 4.0, virulence factor database (VFDB), and ISfinder. Capsular polysaccharide (KL), lipooligosaccharide outer core (OCL), and plasmid reconstruction were tested using Kaptive and PLACNETw. PHASTER was used to predict prophage regions. A comparative genomics analysis of all ST220 A. pittii strains from the public database was carried out. Point mutations, average nucleotide identity (ANI), DNA–DNA hybridization (DDH) distances, and pan-genome analysis were performed. Results A. pittii TCM was ST220Pas and ST1818Oxf with KL38 and OCL6, respectively. It was resistant to imipenem, meropenem, and ciprofloxacin but still susceptible to amikacin, colistin, and tigecycline. WGS revealed that A. pittii TCM contained one circular chromosome and four plasmids. The Tn125 composite transposon, including blaNDM-1, was located in the chromosome with 3-bp target site duplications (TSDs). Many virulence factors and the blaOXA-820 carbapenemase gene were also identified. The stability assays revealed that blaNDM-1 and blaOXA-820 were stabilized by passage in an antibiotic-free medium. Moreover, 12 prophage regions were identified in the chromosome. Phylogenetic analysis showed that there are 11 ST220 A. pittii strains, and one collected from Anhui, China was closely related. All ST220 A. pittii strains presented high ANI and DDH values; they ranged from 99.85% to 100% for ANI and from 97.4% to 99.9% for DDH. Pan-genome analysis revealed 3,200 core genes, 0 soft core genes, 1,571 shell genes, and 933 cloud genes among the 11 ST220 A. pittii strains. Conclusions The coexistence of chromosomal NDM-1 and OXA-820 carbapenemases in A. pittii presents a huge challenge in healthcare settings. Increased surveillance of this species in hospital and community settings is urgently needed.

Abstract
A tigecycline-resistant Acinetobacter pittii clinical strain from pleural fluid carrying a blaNDM–1 gene and a novel blaOXA gene, blaOXA–1045, was isolated and characterized. The AP2044 strain acquired two copies of the blaNDM–1 gene and six antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) from other pathogens. According to the whole-genome investigation, the GC ratios of ARGs (50–60%) were greater than those of the chromosomal backbone (39.46%), indicating that ARGs were horizontally transferred. OXA-1045 belonged to the OXA-213 subfamily and the amino acid sequence of OXA-1045 showed 89% similarity to the amino acid sequences of OXA-213. Then, blaOXA–1045 and blaOXA–213 were cloned and the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of β-lactams in the transformants were determined using the broth microdilution method. OXA-1045 was able to confer a reduced susceptibility to piperacillin and piperacillin-tazobactam compared to OXA-213. AP2044 strain exhibited low pathogenicity in Galleria mellonella infection models. The observation of condensed biofilm using the crystal violet staining method and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) suggested that the AP2044 strain was a weak biofilm producer. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND) efflux pump-related genes. The transcription level of adeB and adeJ genes increased significantly and was correlated with tigecycline resistance. Therefore, our genomic and phenotypic investigations revealed that the AP2044 strain had significant genome plasticity and natural transformation potential, and the emergence of antibiotic resistance in these unusual bacteria should be a concern for future investigations.

Abstract
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter pittii (CRAP) is a causative agent of nosocomial infections. This study aimed to characterize clinical isolates of CRAP from a tertiary hospital in Northeast Thailand. Six isolates were confirmed as extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter pittii (XDRAP). The blaNDM-1 gene was detected in three isolates, whereas blaIMP-14 and blaIMP-1 were detected in the others. Multilocus sequence typing with the Pasteur scheme revealed ST220 in two isolates, ST744 in two isolates, and ST63 and ST396 for the remaining two isolates, respectively. Genomic characterization revealed that six XDRAP genes contained antimicrobial resistance genes: ST63 (A436) and ST396 (A1) contained 10 antimicrobial resistance genes, ST220 (A984 and A864) and ST744 (A56 and A273) contained 9 and 8 antimicrobial resistance genes, respectively. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) phylogenetic tree revealed that the isolates A984 and A864 were closely related to A. pittii YB-45 (ST220) from China, while A436 was related to A. pittii WCHAP100020, also from China. A273 and A56 isolates (ST744) were clustered together; these isolates were closely related to strains 2014S07-126, AP43, and WCHAP005069, which were isolated from Taiwan and China. Strict implementation of infection control based upon the framework of epidemiological analyses is essential to prevent outbreaks and contain the spread of the pathogen. Continued surveillance and close monitoring with molecular epidemiological tools are needed.

Abstract
Although members of the genus Acinetobacter have emerged as important nosocomial pathogens causing severe human infections, there are few reports about their occurrence as fish pathogens. In this study, five bacterial strains were isolated from diseased loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) cultured in a farm in China. The diseased loach displayed shedding of skin mucus and many petechial haemorrhages all over the body. Based on sequence analyses of 16S rRNA and rpoB genes, the isolates were identified as Acinetobacter pittii. An experimental infection assay confirmed their pathogenicity to loach. The results of artificial infection in zebrafish (Barchydanio rerio) and nematode (Caenorhabditis elegans) suggested that, as well as loach, these A. pittii isolates are pathogenic and highly virulent to these organisms. Multilocus sequence typing analysis revealed that all the isolates belong to sequence type (ST) 839, which may be the dominant clone causing fish disease and exhibits a close phylogenetic relationship with ST396 from human clinical samples in Korea or Taiwan China. This is the first report demonstrating that A. pittii is an emerging causal agent of mass mortality in loach and poses significant risks to fish culturing besides causing human clinical infection worldwide.
