Global Genetic Cartography of Urban Metagenomes and Anti-Microbial Resistance

2019-08-05

Abstract excerpt

We have created a global atlas of 4,728 metagenomic samples from mass-transit systems in 60 cities across 3 years. This is the first systematic, worldwide study cataloging the urban microbial ecosystem. We identify taxonomically-defined microorganisms collected across three years. This atlas provides an annotated, geospatial profile of microbial strains, functional characteristics AMR markers, and novel genetic el...
