Composition, Distribution and Mobility Potential of the Antibiotic Resistome in Sediments from the East China Sea Revealed by Metagenomic Analysis

Marine sediments are recognized as crucial reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, the antibiotic resistome in sediments of the East China Sea, an area heavily impacted by human activities, has not been thoroughly studied. Here, we conducted a systematic investigation into the ant...
