Author Correction: Forecasting the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes across bacterial genomes
In the original version of the article 1 , we described a statistical approach to identify putative mobilisation elements and other features associated with transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) among bacterial clades to predict the potential future dissemination of known ARGs. We tested our predictions using a separate database with over 470,000 genomes from Streptococcaceae , Staphylococcaceae and Enterobacteriaceae , confirming 34 of 94 predicted mobilisations.
