Distribution of antibiotic resistance determinants in the guts of healthy Korean subjects. (A) The distribution of resistance determinants in LARG, MARG, and HARG groups. Sample numbers are shown in x-axis. HARG consisted of 10 subjects who had a higher abundance (> 120 GPM) of antibiotic resistance genes. LARG consisted of 10 subjects that had lower abundance (< 60 GPM) of antibiotic resistance genes. MARG was between LARG and HARG, which had ARGs of higher than 60 GPM and lower than 120 GPM (B) Principal component analysis of resistance determinants in HARG, MARG and LARG. (C) Nine antibiotic determinants were significantly enhanced in HARG of the two groups (P-value < 0.01). HARG high antibiotic resistance genes group, MARG middle antibiotic resistance genes group, LARG low antibiotic resistance genes group.
