To investigate tetracycline resistance and resistant genotype in , the tetracycline susceptibility of 212 isolates from China between 2011 and 2017 was tested. The results showed that 192 of 212 (90.6%) isolates exhibited resistance to tetracycline (the MICs ranged from 4 to 256 μg/ml). The results...
