CO-ASSORTMENT IN INTEGRON-ASSOCIATED GENE CASSETTE ASSEMBLAGES IN ENVIRONMENTAL DNA SAMPLES

Abstract Background It has been shown that integron-associated gene cassettes exist largely in tandem arrays of variable size, ranging from antibiotic resistance arrays of three to five cassettes up to arrays of more than 100 cassettes associated with the vibrios.Further, the ecology of the integron/gene cassette system has been investigated by sho
