Environmental resistome of culturable gram-negative bacilli from the Yaque del Norte River: baseline genomic evidence for one health surveillance
Edian F. Franco
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) represents a significant global public health threat. Aquatic ecosystems are increasingly recognized as critical reservoirs of resistance determinants within the One Health framework. Freshwater systems, in particular, facilitate the persistence and dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) at the human–animal–environment interface. This study characterized the environmental resistome of culturable Gram-negative bacilli isolated from the Yaque del Nort
