Enrichment allows identification of diverse, rare elements in metagenomic resistome-virulome sequencing

Abstract Background Shotgun metagenomic sequencing is increasingly utilized as a tool to evaluate ecological-level dynamics of antimicrobial resistance and virulence, in conjunction with microbiome analysis. Interest in use of this method for environmental surveillance of antimicrobial resistance an...
