Antimicrobial resistance genomics across Africa: critical determinants, repository bias and regional coordination
Omani · R. · Maina · G. N. · Fasina · F. O.
Abstract
Public genomic repositories can support antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance, but unequal sampling can bias interpretation. We characterised AMR determinants, multicountry genomic cluster overlap and surveillance gaps across Africa using an NCBI Pathogen Detection snapshot retrieved on 24 August 2026 for 55 African Union member states. Records were validated and deduplicated by BioSample, and complete AMRFinderPlus calls were summarised across five United Nations M49 subregions and eight
