a number of contigs containing resistance genes from bacteria cultured from equine faeces Genome sequencing and assembly. antibiotic resistant equine isolates

Antimicrobial resistance in bacteria is a threat to both human and animal health. We aimed to understand the impact of domestication and antimicrobial treatment on the types and numbers of resistant bacteria, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), and class 1 integrons (C1I) in the equine gut microbiome.
