High levels of antibiotic resistance gene expression among birds living in a wastewater treatment plant

2018-11-05

Abstract excerpt

Antibiotic resistance is rendering common bacterial infections untreatable. Wildlife can incorporate and disperse antibiotic resistant bacteria in the environment, such as water systems, which in turn serve as reservoirs of resistance genes for human pathogens. We used bulk RNA-sequencing (meta-transcriptomics) to assess the diversity and expression levels of functionally active resistance genes in the microbiome...
