Antimicrobial Residue Accumulation Contributes to Higher Levels of <i>Rhodococcus equi</i> Carrying Resistance Genes in the Environment of Horse-Breeding Farms

Antimicrobial Residue Accumulation Contributes to Higher Levels of <i>Rhodococcus equi</i> Carrying Resistance Genes in the Environment of Horse-Breeding Farms

Antimicrobial residues excreted in the environment following antimicrobial treatment enhance resistant microbial communities in the environment and have long-term effects on the selection and maintenance of antimicrobial resistance genes (AMRGs). In this study, we focused on understanding the impact...
