Abstract excerpt
Horticultural supplements containing oxytetracycline and gentamicin, two clinically relevant biocides, are widely marketed to prevent or control infections by bacterial phytopathogens. Despite their regular consumption in the world's less developed countries, it is unknown whether exposure of tropical farmlands to these drugs results in an enrichment of resistant bacteria, resistance genes, and/or mobile genetic e...
