Analysis of viromes and microbiomes from pig fecal samples reveals that phages and prophages are not vectors of antibiotic resistance genes

2021-05-20

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is critical for human health. For this, it is necessary to identify which type of mobile genetic elements is able to spread them from animal reservoirs into human pathogens. Previous research suggests that in pig feces, ARGs may be encoded by bacteriophages. However, convincing proof for phage-encoded ARGs in pig viromes is still lacking, because...
