The Distribution of Eight Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in <i>Streptococcus oralis</i>, <i>Streptococcus sanguinis</i>, and <i>Streptococcus gordonii</i> Strains Isolated from Dental Plaque as Oral Commensals

It has been proposed that oral commensal bacteria are potential reservoirs of a wide variety of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) and could be the source of pathogenic bacteria; however, there is scarce information regarding this. In this study, three common streptococci of the mitis group (<...
