MGEs were also significantly associated with ARGs (M2 = 0.695, P = 0.024) and showed a highly significant correlation with MRGs (M2 = 0.601, P < 0.001).

Interestingly, the relative abundance of the sul2 gene within the sulfonamide class showed an increasing trend, which contrasts with the behavior of other types of ARGs.
The majority exhibited a decreasing trend in abundance, including aadD, ant9-I, aad9, dfrA17, ermB, erm36, among others.
