ARGus: A Co-assembly workflow for MAG generation, ARG detection, and virulence analysis (opens in new tab)

The emergence of antibiotic resistance among pathogenic bacteria is a significant global health challenge with multidrug resistance becoming increasingly common. Moreover, since antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) can be transferred horizontally more bacteria are rapidly evolving resistance. In addition, emerging bacterial pathogens continue to arise from a combination of urbanization, animal agriculture, global movements of people, and inadequate sewage infrastructure. Researchers have begun ...
