From: The detailed analysis of the microbiome and resistome of artisanal blue-veined cheeses provides evidence on sources and patterns of succession linked with quality and safety traits

Fig. 6

Evolution of the resistome of blue-veined cheeses along ripening. Boxplot of total ARGs detected, expressed in counts per million reads (A). Only significant differences (p-value < 0.05) are indicated. Boxplot color indicates surface, jitter plot color indicates producer, and the shape indicates the cave. Principal component analysis of the resistome, considering ARGs classified by antibiotic family, grouped by surface (B). Barplots representing the relative abundance of the 11 most relevant ARG families (C). Other minority antibiotic families are grouped into “Others.” Each bar represents the average value for blue-veined cheese samples (n = 3) and environmental samples (n = 2)
