Hi everyone, please how do I map plasmids encoding ARGs on an assembled genome, and determine their transferability?

09 May 2024 0 7K Report

The result from PlasmidFinder shows that the assembled genome harbored many plasmids. Consequently, I want to investigate whether the plasmids are encoded for ARGs. And determine if they are on the chromosome or extra chromosomal, and their transferability.
