An Overview of Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles of Publicly Available Salmonella Genomes with Sufficient Quality and Metadata.

ABSTRACT: Salmonella enterica (S. enterica) is a commensal organism or pathogen causing diseases in animals and humans, as well as widespread in the environment. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has increasingly affected both animal and human health and continues to raise public health concerns. A decade ago, it was estimated that the increased use of whole genome sequencing (WGS) combined with sharing of public data would drastically change and improve the surveillance and understanding of Salmonella epidemiology and AMR. This study aimed to evaluate the current usefulness of public WGS data for Salmonella surveillance and to investigate the associations between serovars, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), and metadata. Out of 191,306 Salmonella genomes depo
