Bacteria resistance profiles, together with the expression of specific virulence markers, have a major influence on the outcomes of infectious diseases. These bacterial traits are interconnected, since not only the presence of antibiotics may influence bacterial virulence gene expression and consequently infection pathogenesis, but some virulence factors may also contribute to an increased bacterial resistance ability, as observed in biofilm-producing strains. The surveillance of important resistant and virulent clones and associated mobile genetic elements is essential for decision making in terms of mitigation measures to be applied for the prevention of such infections in both human and veterinary medicine. However, the role of natural environments as important components of the dissemination cycle of these strains has not been consider until recently. This Special Issue aims to publish manuscripts that contribute to the understanding of the impact of bacterial antimicrobial resistance and virulence in the three areas of the One Health triad–i.e., animal, human and environmental health.Research & information: generalbicsscBiology, life sciencesbicsscMicrobiology (non-medical)bicsscMRSAEMRSA-15MLSBbacteremiabloodstream infectionsantibiotic resistanceaquatic contaminationprobabilistic samplingSan Francisco EstuarycoastPseudomonasShewanella algaeVibrio parahaemolyticusbiocideListeria monocytogenesbiofilmplanktonic culturepulsed-field gel electrophoresisEscherichia colifosfomycinnitrofurantoinantimicrobial resistanceantibiotic susceptibilityWGSphylogenetic analysisDNA mismatch repair systemSalmonella CholeraesuisIberian pigwild boarphylogenetic relationshipplasmid replicon typingcolistincarcasscfr genefexA genelinezolidmutationpigpublic healthS. aureusavian colibacillosissalmonellosisMDRtetAnisinmutant prevention concentrationmutant selection windowantimicrobial susceptibility testinghorizontal gene transferSalmonellareptilesisolationbiofilmschlorhexidine gluconatewoundsGram-negative bacteriacolonizationinfectionclonal lineagesresistance genesvirulence factorsStaphylococcus aureusskin and soft-tissue infectionsplasmidsPanton–Valentine leucocidinResearch & information: generalBiology, life sciencesMicrobiology (non-medical)Oliveira Manuelaedt1314106Oliveira ManuelaothBOOK9910566485003321Antimicrobial Resistance and Virulence Mechanisms3035000UNINA
