Country-specific of antibiotic resistance gene in urban environment (IMAGE)
Caption
The plot on the left illustrates the unique characteristics of the urban environmental antibiotic resistance gene (ARG) abundance across different countries. The top right plot indicated that, for most resistance categories, the ARG abundance is the highest in the samples collected from low-to-middle-income countries. The bottom right plot shows the risk of antibiotic resistance transfer in different countries, suggesting a higher transfer threat of antibiotic resistance in East Asian countries.
