Latent antibiotic resistance genes are abundant, diverse, and mobile in human, animal, and environmental microbiomes

Abstract Background Bacterial communities in humans, animals, and the external environment maintain a large collection of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, few of these ARGs are well-characterized and thus established in existing resistance gene databases. In contrast, the remaining laten...
