Southeast Florida and Florida Keys: Antibiotic Resistance in Association with Ocean Outfalls and the Antibiotic Treatment of Diseased Corals
September 10, 2020
The purpose of these datasets was to define which samples contained antibiotic resistance genes (screened antibiotic resistance gene targets) and the number of detectable targets per sample (sediment, coral mucus and water). These data were determined from samples collected in Southeast Florida and the Florida Keys, in support of the Southeast Florida Coral Reef Initiative.

Antibiotic resistance in marine microbial communities proximal to a Florida sewage outfall system
Water samples were collected at several wastewater treatment plants in southeast Florida, and water and sediment samples were collected along and around one outfall pipe, as well as along several transects extending both north and south of the respective outfall outlet. Two sets of samples were collected to address potential seasonal differences, including 38 in the wet season (June 2018) and 42 i
