Temporal dynamics of antibiotic resistant genes and their association with the bacterial community in a water-sediment mesocosm under selection by 14 antibiotics
18 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
Antibiotics in aquatic environments at high concentrations and sub-inhibitory concentrations potentially select for the evolution of antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs), posing a potential risk to aquatic ecological safety. Our knowledge of the temporal and successive dynamics of ARGs and bacterial community under the selective pressure of antibiotics in natural water-sediment system was limited. This study used a...
