Retrospective genomic analysis of aminoglycoside-resistant bacteria in a veterinary hospital highlights robust plasmid dissemination.

The armA gene was found on a mobilizable IncR plasmid in clinical isolates, indicating serious antibiotic resistance.
Genomic comparisons showed >95% plasmid identity between clinical isolates and environmental samples, suggesting long-term persistence.
A total of 789 Enterobacterales isolates were analyzed, revealing four aminoglycoside-resistant strains from horses.
The study emphasizes the importance of genomic surveillance of plasmids to mitigate antimicrobial resistance in veterinary healthcare.

Serna et al. (2025) studied this question.
