Metagenomic Insights into Chicken Gut Antibiotic Resistomes and Microbiomes

Metagenomic Insights into Chicken Gut Antibiotic Resistomes and Microbiomes

ABSTRACT The chicken gut microbiota, as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), poses a high risk to humans and animals worldwide. Yet a comprehensive exploration of the chicken gut antibiotic resistomes remains incomplete. In this study, we established the largest chicken gut resistance...
