Fig. 5: Antibiotic resistance genes are associated with mobile genetic elements.
From: Metagenomic co-assembly uncovers mobile antibiotic resistance genes in airborne microbiomes
The RPKM values of genes linked to both mobile genetic elements and antibiotic resistance are labeled outside the circle. Each chord diagram represents the corresponding sample name. ARGs are grouped and displayed based on the classes of antibiotics they confer resistance to. At the bottom of each chord diagram, bar plots represent total gene (ORF) abundance, total antibiotic resistance gene abundance, and total mobile antibiotic resistance gene abundance. All values are expressed as log10 RPKM, with exact RPKM values displayed above each bar.
