Impact of urbanization on antimicrobial resistance in soil microbial communities by Davide Bongiovanni, Simon Masson, Matteo Chialva, Valentina Fiorilli, Cristina Votta, Luisa Lanfranco, Irene Stefanini

“…To fill in this gap, we adopted a molecular and culturomics approach to study antibiotic resistance in urban parks, accounting for the environmental matrix and the level of urbanization. A higher abundance of efflux-mediated mechanisms in undisturbed environments was observed, while antibiotic alteration or inactivation, and target replacement were more abundant in areas with a higher level of urbanization, also confirmed by significant correlations with anthropogenic features of the environmental matrix. …”
