Mathematical modelling of antimicrobial resistance in agricultural waste highlights importance of gene transfer rate

Antimicrobial resistance is of global concern. Most antimicrobial use is in agriculture; manures and slurry are especially important because they contain a mix of bacteria, including potential pathogens, antimicrobial resistance genes and antimicrobials. In many countries, manures and slurry are sto...
