Aquatic environments are identified as an ideal setting for acquisition and dissemination of
antibiotic resistance, and human exposure to antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and …

Antimicrobial resistance is one of the major problems in current practical medicine. The
spread of genes coding for resistance determinants among bacteria challenges the use of …

In many develo** countries, aquaculture is key to ensuring food security for millions of
people. It is thus important to measure the full implications of environmental changes on the …

Microplastics (MPs) are contaminants of emerging concern that have gained considerable
attention during the last few decades due to their adverse impact on living organisms and …

Biofilms in water environments are thought to be hot spots for horizontal gene transfer (HGT)
of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). ARGs can be spread via HGT, though mechanisms …

It is well established that the gut microbiota plays an important role in host health and is
perturbed by several factors including antibiotics. Antibiotic‐induced changes in microbial …

Plastics have been accumulated offshore and in the deep oceans at an unprecedented
scale. Microbial communities have colonized the plastisphere, which has become a …

For decades, coastal marine ecosystems have been threatened by a wide range of
anthropogenic pollutants. Recently, there has been increasing concern about the …

The agricultural ecosystem creates a platform for the development and dissemination of
antimicrobial resistance, which is promoted by the indiscriminate use of antibiotics in the …

Antibiotics are being used intensively for humans and livestock worldwide and have led to
the presence of antibiotic resistance bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) …
