The environment plays a critical role in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes. The comprehension of the human impact on the acquisition and evolution of these genes is essential to mitigate the burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has demonstrated to be highly useful to reveal the epidemiological elements governing the spread of AMR
