Antibiotic resistance plasmid composition and architecture in Escherichia coli isolates from meat
Abstract Resistance plasmids play a crucial role in the transfer of antimicrobial resistance from the veterinary sector to human healthcare. In this study plasmids from foodborne Escherichia coli isolates with a known (ES)BL or tetracycline resistance were sequenced entirely with short- and long-rea...

Abstract Resistance plasmids play a crucial role in the transfer of antimicrobial resistance from the veterinary sector to human healthcare.
