Phylogenomic insights into LA-MRSA from Argentine pig farm environments: novel OptrA variant and regional emergence of an ST9 lineage co-circulating with international CC398 lineages
These findings underscore pig farms as emerging reservoirs of multidrug-resistant MRSA both locally and globally, reinforcing the need for targeted surveillance and control strategies at the animal-human interface.
