From: An observational study demonstrates human-adapted Staphylococcus aureus strains have a higher frequency of antibiotic resistance compared to cattle-adapted strains isolated from dairy farms making farmstead cheese

Frequency of the beta-lactam resistance among S. aureus isolates by isolate source and clonal complex. Frequency of the beta-lactam resistance gene presence (blaZ positive) among S. aureus isolates from 3 different sources stratified by MLST clonal complex. (BTM: Bulk tank milk, CQM: Cow quarter milk, Human: hand and nasal swabs). The human and cow icons identify potential spillover isolates, which are defined as host-adapted isolates associated with one host species and isolated from a different host species
