Salmonella enterica resistant to colistin, third-generation cephalosporins (3GCs), and fluoroquinolones (FQs) has been deemed a high-priority pathogen by the World Health Organization (WHO). The objec
In this study, we were interested in dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes among chicken gut commensals. Subsequently, we verified the frequency of distribution andassociation of the major taxa
Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) carrying antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) disseminate ARGs when they mobilise into new bacterial hosts. To investigate the scale of such horizontal gene transfer (HGT)
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of plasmids is important for the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) among medically relevant pathogens. Specifically, the transfer of IncHI1A (HI1A) pla
