Gene flux and acid-imposed selection are the main drivers of antimicrobial resistance in broiler chicks infected with <i>Salmonella enterica</i> serovar Heidelberg
2021-02-27
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance (AR) spread is a worldwide health challenge, stemming in large part, from the ability of microbes to share their genetic material through horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Overuse and misuse of antibiotics in clinical settings and in food production have been linked to this increased prevalence and spread of AR. Consequently, public health and consumer concerns have resulted in a remarkable...
