Diverse tetracycline resistance genotypes of Megasphaera elsdenii strains selectively cultured from swine feces.

PMID 15184185 · 2004

The study identifies multiple tetracycline resistance genotypes in Megasphaera elsdenii strains, including novel mosaic genes such as tet(OWO)-1 and tet(OWO)-2, which confer high levels of tetracycline resistance.
