Temporal dynamics of antibiotic resistant genes and their association with the bacterial community in a water-sediment mesocosm under selection by 14 antibiotics

Antibiotics in aquatic environments at high concentrations and sub-inhibitory concentrations potentially select for the evolution of antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs), posing a potential risk to aquatic ecological safety. Our knowledge of the temporal and successive dynamics of ARGs and bacterial co...
