    Co-localization of antibiotic resistance genes is widespread in the infant gut microbiome and associates with an immature gut microbial composition

    In environmental bacteria, the selective advantage of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) can be increased through co-localization with genes such as other ARGs, biocide resistance genes, metal resistance genes...
