Longitudinal changes in the nasopharyngeal resistome of South African infants using shotgun metagenomic sequencing.
<h4>Introduction</h4>Nasopharyngeal (NP) colonization with antimicrobial-resistant bacteria is a global public health concern. Antimicrobial-resistance (AMR) genes carried by the resident NP microbiota may serve as a reservoir for transfer of resistance elements to opportunistic pathogen...
