Dynamics of gut resistome and mobilome in early life: aย meta-analysis The gut microbiota of infants harbours a higher proportion of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) compared to adults, even in infants never exposed to โ€ฆ

Two papers in one week! Here, we conducted a meta-analysis of longitudinal infant cohorts to unravel patterns in gut resistome and mobilome of infants.
