And a rather interesting @MicrobiomeJ paper applying functional metagenomics and in silico filtering of known resistance genes to discover novel, mobilised resistance genes in class 1 integrons in wastewater-impacted environments https://t.co/YkkfrURhvs

How metagenomics on environmental samples can inform surveillance measures: J. Larsson&al. @CARe_GU identified a novel antibiotic resistance gene in wastewater-impacted environments. The gene is also present in clinical isolates of bacterial pathogens!
