Antibiotic resistance gene dynamics in the commensal infant gut microbiome over the first year of life
Abstract Colonization of the infant gut is an important developmental process characterized by high carriage of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) and high abundances of pathobionts. The horizontal transfer of ARGs to pathogenic bacteria represents a major public health concern. However, there is...
