As an important reservoir of intrinsic antimicrobial resistance, soil is subjected to increasing anthropogenic activities that creates sustained selection pressure for the prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), thus constituting an important environmental dissemination pathway to human exposure. This...
Microbial Resistance☆ Transmissible Resistance Due to Acquisition of Antibiotic Resistance Genes 1. Antibiotic resistancegenes generally have little effect on the host cell's overall fitness. For example, many of these genes actually destroy theantibioticand do not alter the target site. Further, the...
In this study, we collected 40 fecal samples to explore drug resistance derived from antibiotic use in the bacterial community by an analysis of the diversities and differences of antibiotic-resistant genes (ARGs) in the gut microbiota from yak, beef, and dairy cattle. Overall, 1688 genes were...
Antibiotics are widely used in animal husbandry, and various types of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are frequently detected in livestock waste around the world. Conventional livestock waste treatment processes do not completely remove ARGs, resulting in their release to soil and water environments....
Antibiotic resistance is thought to evolve rapidly in response to antibiotic use. At present, we lack effective tools to assess how rapidly existing resistance genes are likely to evolve to yield resistance to newly introduced drugs. To address this problem, a method has been developed for in ...

resistance plasmidsThe genes that determine resistance to antibiotics are commonly found encoded by extrachromosomal elements in bacteria. These were described first in Enterobacteriaceae and subsequently in a variety of other genera; their spread is associated with the increased use of antibiotics in ...

The spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) poses a substantial threat to human health. Phage-mediated transduction could exacerbate ARG transmission. While several case studies exist, it is yet unclear to what extent phages encode and mobilize ARGs at the global scale and whether human impacts...
