Low-concentration ciprofloxacin selects plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance encoding genes and affects bacterial taxa in soil containing manure
The spread of antimicrobial resistance in environment is promoted at least in part by the inappropriate use of antibiotics in animals and humans. The present study was designed to investigate the impact of different concentrations of ciprofloxacin in soil containing manure on the development of plas...
