Abstract excerpt
Salmonella is a major zoonotic foodborne pathogen, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Salmonella presents a significant public health challenge. Compared with conventional antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST), whole-genome sequencing (WGS) provides a more rapid and comprehensive approach to AMR characterization, thereby informing antimicrobial selection and supporting public health surveillance. In this...
