A serial cross-sectional community-based study was conducted to examine how smallscale poultry production practices affect the frequency of MGEs and phenotypic AMR in poultry and human isolates across rural communities in northern Ecuador

The study included a total of 31 villages distributed along roads and river basins near Borbón, a major population hub in northern coastal Ecuador, that were visited between 2003 and 2012. This analysis was restricted to data from 20 of these villages, where fecal samples from both humans and chickens were collected (August 2010 to May 2012). Each village was visited for 15 days once a year during this period. Because the study period encompassed 20 months, some villages were visited once and others twice.
