Fig. 2: Prevalence of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms (ARMs) at the wildlife-livestock interface.
From: Transmission of antibiotic resistance at the wildlife-livestock interface
a The prevalence of ARMs by type of antibiotic (AMP ampicillin, CTX cefotaxime, KAN kanamycin, STR streptomycin, TET tetracycline). The error bars indicate 95% confidence intervals. The prevalence of ARMs among different antibiotics were also compared using a Chi-Square test as follows: cefotaxime vs. kanamycin in feral swine (P < 0.0001), cefotaxime vs. streptomycin in feral swine (P < 0.0001), tetracycline vs. kanamycin in feral swine (P < 0.0001), tetracycline vs. streptomycin in feral swine (P < 0.0001), cefotaxime vs. kanamycin in cattle (P < 0.0001), cefotaxime vs. streptomycin in cattle (P = 0.041), tetracycline vs. kanamycin in cattle (P = 0.041), tetracycline vs. streptomycin in feral swine (P = 0.021). Asterisks indicate a statistical difference (P < 0.05) of each category comparison by Chi-Square test. b A phylogenetic tree of 16 S rRNA sequences from cefotaxime resistant bacteria estimated by maximum likelihood. Different colors indicate source of the isolate (black: feral swine, orange: cattle, olive: coyote, green: soil, blue: water).
