Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Bacterial Community Composition in a River Influenced by a Wastewater Treatment Plant

TL;DR: It is indicated that WWTP discharges may contribute to the spread of ARGs into the environment and may also impact on the bacterial communities of the receiving river.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibiotic Resistance Genes in the Bacteriophage DNA Fraction of Environmental Samples

TL;DR: It is indicated that phages are reservoirs of resistance genes in the environment by detecting three genes that confer resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in bacteriophage DNA isolated from environmental water samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Survival of bacterial indicator species and bacteriophages after thermal treatment of sludge and sewage

TL;DR: The phages survived significantly better than Salmonella choleraesuis, and the extents of inactivation indicated that naturally occurring bacteriophages can be used to monitor the inactivation of Escherichia coli and Salmoneella.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global phylogeography and ancient evolution of the widespread human gut virus crAssphage

Robert Edwards, +120 more
- 08 Jul 2019 - 
TL;DR: It is concluded that crAssphage is a benign cosmopolitan virus that may have coevolved with the human lineage and is an integral part of the normal human gut virome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacteriophages Carrying Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Fecal Waste from Cattle, Pigs, and Poultry

TL;DR: Densities of blaTEM, blaCTX-M, and mecA were detected, suggesting that bacteriophages can be environmental vectors for the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes.
