Conjugative transfer of multi-drug resistance IncN plasmids from environmental waterborne bacteria to Escherichia coli

Conjugative transfer of multi-drug resistance IncN plasmids from environmental waterborne bacteria to Escherichia coli

Watersheds contaminated with municipal, hospital, and agricultural residues are recognized as reservoirs for bacteria carrying antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The objective of this study was to determine the potential of environmental bacterial communities from the highly contaminated La Paz Riv...
