The concept of the antibiotic resistome was introduced just over a decade ago, and since
then, active resistome studies have been conducted. In the present study, we describe the …

Antimicrobial resistance extracts high morbidity, mortality and economic costs yearly by
rendering bacteria immune to antibiotics. Identifying and understanding antimicrobial …

The gut microbiome can vary across differences in host lifestyle, geography, and host
species. By comparing closely related host species across varying lifestyles and geography …

India is one of the largest consumers and producers of antibiotics and a hot spot for the
emergence and proliferation of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). Indian hospital …

The gut microbiota is recognised as an essential asset for the normal functioning of animal
biology. When wild animals are moved into captivity, the modified environmental pressures …

Because of its potential to modulate host health, the gut microbiome of captive animals has
become an increasingly important area of research. In this paper, we review the current …

The presence and spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are causing substantial
global public concern; however, the dispersal of ARGs in the food chain is poorly …

In China, the common use of antibiotics in agriculture is recognized as a potential public
health risk through the increasing use of livestock derived manure as a means of fertilization …

Background Inter-population variation in host-associated microbiota reflects differences in
the hosts' environments, but this characterization is typically based on studies comparing …

Organismal biology has undergone a dramatic paradigm shift in the last decade. The
realization that host cells and genes are outnumbered by symbiotic microbial cells and their …
