Metagenomics-based analysis of mobile genetic elements and antibiotic/metal resistance genes carried by treated wastewater
Wastewater treatment plants in Tunisia are recognized as key locations for the spread of antibiotic and heavy metal resistance genes among bacteria. Despite the widespread presence of pollutants in these treatment systems, there is still a significant gap in our understanding of resistance dynamics....
