Antimicrobial resistance percentages of the BRD-bacterial isolates recovered from beef and dairy-type cattle upon feedlot arrival. These percentages represent unadjusted proportions. The asterisks represent the statistical test significance levels as follows: “.” 0.1, “**” 0.01, “***” 0.001. Multidrug resistance was defined as resistance to 3 or more different antimicrobial classes (36). AMP, ampicillin; BRD, bovine respiratory disease; DANO, danofloxacin; ENRO, enrofloxacin; FFN, florfenicol; Hs, Histophilus somni; Mb, Mycoplasma bovis; Mh, Mannheimia haemolytica; OXY, oxytetracycline; PEN, penicillin; Pm, Pasteurella multocida; SPE, spectinomycin; TIL, tilmicosin; TIO, ceftiofur; TUL, tulathromycin.
