Characterization of integrative and conjugative elements carrying antibiotic resistance genes of Streptococcus suis isolated in China

Streptococcus suis, an emerging zoonotic pathogen, is important reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes that play critical roles in the horizontal transfer of corresponding resistances. In the present study, 656 antibiotic resistance (AR) genes were detected in 154 of 155 genomes of S. suis strain...
