The concomitant occurrence of independent antimicrobial resistance mechanisms is a serious threat to human health and has appeared in several emerging epidemic clones over the past decade in humans and also in animals. The increasing prevalence of antimicrobial drug resistance among animal and zoonotic foodborne pathogens is of particular concern for public health. In this Ebook, we gathered a collection of articles which deal with the most important aspects of the genetics of acquired antimicrobial resistance extending from medically-important resistance, emerging epidemic resistant clones, main mobile genetic elements spreading resistance, resistomes, dissemination between animals and humans, to the "One Health" concept.Microbiology (non-medical)bicsscAntimicrobial resistance genefood-producing animalintegrative elementIntegronmutationOne HealthpetplasmidresistomeMicrobiology (non-medical)Michel Stanislas Zygmuntauth1329300Benoit DoubletauthAxel CloeckaertauthBOOK9910345962103321Genetics of Acquired Antimicrobial Resistance in Animal and Zoonotic Pathogens3039400UNINA
