Genomic portraits of methicillin-resistant staphylococci (MRS) from food fish unveiled the genes associated with staphylococcal food poisoning (SFP), virulence and antimicrobial resistance
This study highlights the genetic diversity and resistance profiles of MRSA and MRSH, with non-clinical MRSA showing notable relatedness to clinical strains. Future research should explore resistance gene transfer mechanisms and environmental reservoirs to better manage MRSA spread.
