Objective: This study characterized the resistance phenotype and genotype of K. intermedia L-40-1, isolated from a pig in Jilin Province, China, and investigated the genomic determinants of its antibiotic resistance. Methods: 16S rRNA sequencing was performed to identify the strain. The resistance phenotype was assessed by determining minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), and resistance determinants were characterized by whole-genome sequencing. Comparative genomic analysis against the national center for biotechnology information (NCBI) database of K. intermedia strains was conducted to determine phylogenetic relationships and resistance gene profiles. Results: L-40-1 exhibited high resistance to β-lactams, cephalosporins, macrolides, aminoglycosides, and sulfonamides. Comparative analysis identified 19 high-frequency resistance genes (e.g., arnT, rsmA, emrR, and acrA). A 159,618 bp plasmid (PYL-8) harbored multiple resistance genes (e.g., sul1, dfrA27, qnrB6, and tet(D)) and transposons (e.g., IS6, IS1, and Tn3), contributing to its multidrug resistance. Chromosomal and plasmid-borne resistance mechanisms were identified. Conclusions and Relevance: K. intermedia L-40-1 uses a combination of chromosomal and plasmid-mediated resistance genes, facilitated by transposons, to confer multidrug resistance. This highlights the need for surveillance of K. intermedia in livestock to mitigate the spread of antibiotic resistance.
