China is the largest global consumer of antimicrobials and improving surveillance methods could help to reduce antimicrobial resistance (AMR) spread. Here we report ten large-scale chicken farms four connected abattoirs in three Chinese provinces over 2.5 years. Using a data mining approach based on machine learning, analysed 461 microbiomes from birds, carcasses environments, identifying 145 potentially mobile antibiotic genes (ARGs) shared between chickens environments across all farms.

Anthropogenic environments such as those created by intensive farming of livestock, have been proposed to provide ideal selection pressure for the emergence antimicrobial-resistant Escherichia coli bacteria and antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) spread humans. Here, we performed a longitudinal study in large-scale commercial poultry farm China, collecting E . isolates from both slaughterhouse; targeting animals, carcasses, workers their households environment. By using whole-genome...
