Antimicrobial resistance is mainly mediated by specific genes that are often harboured by genetic elements such as plasmids, integrons, transposons, insertion sequences, integrative conjugative elements, etc. Among such elements, plasmids (if conjugative or ) play key roles in the horizontal transfer of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARG) and in the emergence of new antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB)

Abstract

Antimicrobial resistance is mainly mediated by specific genes that are often harboured by genetic elements such as plasmids, integrons, transposons, insertion sequences, integrative conjugative elements, etc. Among such elements, plasmids (if conjugative or ) play key roles in the horizontal transfer of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARG) and in the emergence of new antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB)
