Grazing disturbance increased the mobility, pathogenicity and host microbial species of antibiotic resistance genes, and multidrug resistance genes posed the highest risk in the habitats of wild animals

There are frequent exchanges of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and their antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) between the external environment or livestock and wild animals. Grazing disturbance (GD) is a major factor that causes dramatic changes in China’s nature reserves. Studying the risk of ARGs in...
