  <dc:description>Summary
Citrobacter spp., Enterobacter hormaechei subsp., Klebsiella variicola and Proteae tribe members are rarely isolated  Enterobacterales increasingly implicated in nosocomial infections. Herein, we show that these species contain multiple genes encoding resistance to important antibiotics and are widely and globally distributed, being isolated from human, animal,
plant, and environmental sources in 67 countries. Certain clones and clades of these species were internationally disseminated, serving as reservoirs and mediums for the global dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes. As they can easily transmit
these genes to more pathogenic species, additional molecular surveillance studies should be undertaken to identify and contain these antibiotic-resistant species.</dc:description>
