Longitudinal metagenomic study reveals the dynamics of fecal antibiotic resistome in pigs throughout the lifetime
8 Nov 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) poses a substantial threat to environmental safety and human health. Herein, we present a longitudinal paired study across the swine lifetime from birth to market, coupled with metagenomic sequencing to explore the dynamics of ARGs and their health risk in the swine fecal microbiome. RESULTS: We systematically characterized the composition and...
