The function of integron-associated genes cassettes in Vibrio species: the tip of the iceberg [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 The integron is a genetic element that incorporates mobile genes termed gene cassettes into a reserved genetic site via site-specific recombination. It is best known for its role in antibiotic resistance with one type of integron, the class 1 integron, a

Prevalence of Antibiotic Resistome in Ready-to-Eat Salad [PDF]
, 2020 Ready-to-eat salad harbors microorganisms that may carry various antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, few studies have focused on the prevalence of ARGs on salad, thus underestimating the risk of ARGs transferring from salad to consumers. In this
