Antibiotic resistance genes, class 1 integrons, and IncP-1/IncQ-1 plasmids in irrigation return flows

Surface waters could be a dominant route by which antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are disseminated. In the present study we explored the prevalence and abundance of ARGs [blaCTX-M-1, erm(B), sul1, tet(B), tet(M), and tet(X)], class 1 integron-integrase gene (intI1), and IncP-1 and IncQ-1 plasmids...
