Abstract excerpt

Microbial Ecology![Figure][1] Yanomami microbiota contain antibiotic resistance genes CREDIT: CARLOS GARCIA RAWLINS/REUTERS/NEWSCOM Surprisingly, the previously unexplored microbiome of Amerindians contains antibiotic resistance genes. Clemente et al. characterized the fecal, oral, and skin bacterial microbiome of people in a Yanomami Amerindian village with no known previous contact with Western peoples for t...
