Key Findings
The study identified several antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes in Enterococcus species isolated from backyard chickens, including ermB, ermA, tetM, tetL, vanA, cat, and pbp5. These genes were associated with resistance to erythromycin, tetracycline, vancomycin, chloramphenicol, and ampicillin.
