Abstract

Coastal Vibrio harbor a high diversity of underexplored antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). Their selective maintenance in the absence of antibiotic selection is puzzling. While their mobilization is rare, it may just be a question of time when the ecological context turns the coastal environment into a source for ARG spillover.
