We demonstrate here the genetic diversity ofK. pneumoniae isolates from dairy cows and the mixed phylogenetic lineages between bovine and human isolates. The ferric uptake operonkfuABC genes were more prevalent in strains from clinical mastitis cows. Furthermore, we report the emergence of an IncN-type plasmid carrying thebla CTX-M-1 andmph (A) genes among dairy farms in the United States. Our study evaluated the genomic diversity of the bovine and human isolates, and the findings uncovered different profiles of virulence determinants among bovine and humanK. pneumoniae isolates at the genome population level.
