ISCR1 is an important mobile genetic element mediating the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes. Genetic diversity regarding distribution and copy numbers of ISCR1 within a bacterial population derived from an ancestral strain, which may reflect the degree of genetic plasticity conferred by such an element, has not been studied.
