Abundance and diversity of antibiotic resistance genes and bacterial communities in the western Pacific and Southern Oceans
24 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
This study investigated the abundance and diversity of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and the composition of bacterial communities along a transect covering the western Pacific Ocean (36°N) to the Southern Ocean (74°S) using the Korean icebreaker R/V Araon (total cruise distance: 14,942 km). The relative abundances of ARGs and bacteria were assessed with quantitative PCR and next generation sequencing,...
