Horizontally acquired antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in bacteria are highly mobile and
have been ranked as principal risk resistance determinants. However, the transfer network …

The concept of the antibiotic resistome was introduced just over a decade ago, and since
then, active resistome studies have been conducted. In the present study, we describe the …

The antibiotic resistance is natural in bacteria and predates the human use of antibiotics.
Numerous antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have been discovered to confer resistance to …

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a global human and animal health threat, and
predicting AMR persistence and transmission remains an intractable challenge. Shotgun …

Background The impact of human activities on the environmental resistome has been
documented in many studies, but there remains the controversial question of whether the …

ABSTRACT A global rise in antimicrobial resistance among pathogenic bacteria has proved
to be a major public health threat, with the rate of multidrug-resistant bacterial infections …

Background Bacterial communities in humans, animals, and the external environment
maintain a large collection of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, few of these …

The emergence and spread of mobile antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in pathogens have
become a serious threat to global health. Still little is known about where ARGs gain mobility …

Despite the documented antibiotic-induced disruption of the gut microbiota, the impact of
antibiotic intake on strain-level dynamics, evolution of resistance genes, and factors …

Antibiotic or antimicrobial resistance (AR) facilitated by the vertical and/or horizontal transfer
of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), is a serious global health challenge. While …
