OverviewAI-generated summary
Mitiku Mihiret Seyoum's research investigates the presence and spread of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in environmental systems, particularly in soil and crop environments irrigated with treated wastewater. Seyoum has published work examining the distribution of these contaminants in different soil types and their impact on tomato crops. Additionally, Seyoum's research explores the movement of ARGs and microbial communities in landscapes following agricultural applications, such as poultry litter, and the effectiveness of barriers in mitigating their spread. This work also extends to understanding the long-term effects of agricultural management practices on soil microbiomes and ARGs. Seyoum also contributes to research on poultry microbiota and the development of standardized analysis protocols for this field. Collaborations include work with Mary C. Savin, Amanda J. Ashworth, Valentina Caputi, and P. Moore at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
