ABSTRACT

Despite the fact that the presence of silent genes, Transposable elements (TEs) and antibiotic resistance are related, only a small number of studies have examined the presence and distribution of transposable elements in animal food production chains, including pig and poultry farms. It is well known that there is a correlation between the spread of TEs carrying harmful bacteria from farms to food animals and from food animals into the cycle of production of animals for food. The present study identified the presence of five TEs namely Tn6763 (Accession number: OQ565300), Tn6764, (Accession number: OQ565299), Tn6765 (Accession number: OQ409902), Tn2003 (Accession number: OQ503494) and Tn6020 (Accession number: OQ503493) in (N= 235) samples collected from piggery farm and chicken meat shops from Kolkata and some regions of Assam. The identified food borne pathogens mainly belongs to Enterobacteriaceae family. Four highly zoonotic food borne pathogens with AMR was identified, 42% (77) Salmonella enterica, 26% (49) E. coli, 14% (26) Proteus mirabilis, 12% (22) Klebsiella pneumoniae and 6% (11) K. pneumonia were positive and carrying Tn6765, Tn6764, Tn6763, Tn6020 and Tn2003 respectively. Given the presence of TEs responsible for AMR in food borne pathogen and their relative contamination from pig farms and poultry farm to meat shops was described to be a major public health threat. Thus, preventative measures are vital for avoiding the spread of mobile genetic resistance determinants in the Livestock and Animal food production sector and to monitor their emergence.
