Indicators for evaluating the pollution level (abundance, richness, or both) of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). a The distribution curves of Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients calculated from the correlation analysis between the abundances of selected indicators and all ARGs in the tested samples (red curve), between the abundances of selected indicators and richness of ARGs (number of ARGs) (green curve), and between the abundances of selected indicators, and both richness and abundance of all ARGs in the tested samples (blue curve) following the numbers of ARGs selected. b Validation of the prediction accuracy of AMR pollution using the selected ARG subsets using the dataset of 185 fecal samples downloaded from the public database (Munk et al. [9]). The red, green, and blue curves represent the distribution of correlation coefficients for abundance, richness, and both abundance and richness, respectively, as described above
