SUMMARY

    A previous study reported the importance of low abundance antimicrobial-resistant microbes in soil-plant systems for the spread of AMR. The potential transmission of AMR back to humans through a soil-microbe-animal-plant nexus endangers public health, since the spread of AMR could push the authors to the post-antibiotic era. One of the main reasons could be the large abundance of extracellular DNA (eDNA) in soil, which cannot distinguish active antimicrobial resistant microbes from dead/dormant antimicrobial sensitive microbes. The build-up of antibiotics and ARGs in organic fertilisers, such as . . .
