mSphere, 2017 A highly fluoroquinolone-resistant isolate of Aeromonas species was isolated from a wastewater treatment plant and found to possess multiple resistance mechanisms, including mutations in gyrA and parC, efflux pumps, and plasmid-mediated quinolone ...

Farm dust resistomes and bacterial microbiomes in European poultry and pig farms
Environment International, 2020 Background: Livestock farms are a reservoir of antimicrobial resistant bacteria from feces. Airborne dust-bound bacteria can spread across the barn and to the outdoor environment.

Proteomics as the final step in the functional metagenomics study of antimicrobial resistance [PDF]
, 2015 peer-reviewedThe majority of clinically applied antimicrobial agents are derived from natural products generated by soil microorganisms and therefore resistance is likely to be ubiquitous in such environments.

Resistome expansion in disease-associated human gut microbiomes
Microbiome, 2023 Background The resistome, the collection of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in a microbiome, is increasingly recognised as relevant to the development of clinically relevant antibiotic resistance.

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015 In recent decades, the emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance among bacterial pathogens has become a major threat to public health. Bacteria can acquire antibiotic resistance genes by the mobilization and transfer of resistance genes from a donor strain.

Environmental and Anthropogenic Factors Shape the Snow Microbiome and Antibiotic Resistome
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Winter tourism can generate environmental pollution and affect microbial ecology in mountain ecosystems. This could stimulate the development of antibiotic resistance in snow and its dissemination through the atmosphere and through snow melting.
