Research reveals distinct genomic traits in soil microbial communities, suggesting implications for virulence and resistance in conversion from forest to pasture.
The Amazon rainforest is facing multifaceted anthropogenic pressures, and we previously showed that forest-to-pasture conversion has led to soil microbial communities with distinct genomic traits. Here, we present 69 archaeal and bacterial metagenome-assembled genomes and detail their virulence- and antimicrobial resistance-associated genes.
