Distribution and quantification of antibiotic resistant genes and bacteria across agricultural and non-agricultural metagenomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 There is concern that antibiotic resistance can potentially be transferred from animals to humans through the food chain. The relationship between specific antibiotic resistant bacteria and the genes they carry remains to be described.

Antibiotic resistance genes in layer farms and their correlation with environmental samples
Poultry Science, 2021 : Livestock farms are generally considered to be the important source of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). It is important to explore the spread of ARGs to reduce their harm. This study analyzed 13 resistance genes belonging to 7 types in 68 samples of
