Freshwater Viral Metagenome Reveals Novel and Functional Phage-borne Antibiotic Resistance Genes
2019-12-05
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background</bold>Antibiotic resistance developed by bacteria is a significant threat to global health. Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) spread across different bacterial populations through multiple dissemination routes, including horizontal gene transfer mediated by bacteriophages. ARGs carried by bacteriophages are considered especially threatening due to their prolonged persi...
