Antimicrobial resistance genes (AMRGs) detected in arsenic-contaminated GW microbiomes. Metagenome sequencing data was used to search for open reading frames (ORFs) compared against the ResFinder database to identify AMRGs with over 95% sequence identity. The relative values in the heatmap (after normalization), depicted by colors, indicate the aggregation degree or content of AMRGs in the samples according to study region (Munshiganj and Chandpur) and types (biocides, drugs, metals, and multi-compound). The color bar (red to blue) displays the row Z-scores (2 to -1): red color indicates high abundance; blue color represents low abundance. The color of the squares on the left shows the relative abundance of the respective AMRGs in each group
