Enterococci Genome sequencing and assembly

Nowadays, shared bicycles are prevailing in China, which are widely used for the first or last mile to connect to other public transportations. However, we have limited knowledge about the role of shared bicycles in maintaining and transmitting potential pathogens and antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Herein, we aimed to assess the prevalence and distribution of Gram-positive bacteria resistant to clinically relevant antibiotics, and to determine their transmission potentials in shared bicycles.
