• Review of antibiotic resistance in China and its environment. (2018, neutral): “ARG abundances were consistent with the levels of anthropogenic impacts on these environments (Li et al., 2015).”
• Do manure-borne or indigenous soil microorganisms influence the spread of antibiotic resistance genes in manured soil? (2017, background): “taxa were found to significantly correlate with the profile of ARGs by network analysis (Chen et al., 2016; Li et al., 2015).”
• Long-term field application of sewage sludge increases the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes in soil. (2016, methodology): “Only few of the ARGs hosts have been verified in previous studies, for instance, by using network analysis, Li et al. found that Blautia was the host of tet32, tetM, tetQ and tetO and ermB, and Escherichia carry resistance genes of cfxA3, tetQ, acrA, mdtH, mdtL and mdtO (Li et al., 2015b).”
