Review of the Presence and Phage-Mediated Transfer of ARGs in Biofilms

Microorganisms
The widespread use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of a large number of drug-resistant bacteria, accelerating the dissemination and spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment. Bacterial biofilms, serving as reservoirs of ARGs,
