a The linear regression between the abundance (coverage/size) of genomic ARGs and MGEs in summer and winter. The potential antibiotic-resistant bacteria (PARB) genomes were further classified into the human virulent factors (HVF) hosting group and the non-HVF hosting group. The linear relationship fitted a significant correlation (Pearson, P < 0.05) and is described using a solid line with confidential intervals (gray shades), while the insignificant relationship is depicted using a dashed line. b ARGs associated with MGEs (on the same assembled scaffold) were shared by different bacterial genomes in winter and summer. These mobile ARGs were detected (mapped back) in the hospital samples (reads). The hosting taxa belonging to the same phylum are annotated in the same color
