Antibiotic resistant bacteria and commensal fungi are common and conserved in the mosquito microbiome.
The emerging and increasing prevalence of bacterial antibiotic resistance is a significant public health challenge. To begin to tackle this problem, it will be critical to not only understand the origins of this resistance but also document environmental reservoirs of antibiotic resistance. In this...
