Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of antimicrobial resistance in Enterococcus spp. Isolated from the skin microbiota of channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) in Southeastern United States

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of antimicrobial resistance in Enterococcus spp. Isolated from the skin microbiota of channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) in Southeastern United States

Abstract Background Aquaculture systems may contribute to the emergence and persistence of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) bacteria, posing risks to animal, environmental, and human health. This study characterized the phenotypic and genotypic antimicrobial resistance profiles of Enterococcus spp. iso...
