Abstract
Water treatment plants treat raw water making it suitable for consumption. Treatment stages are linked to the quality status of the treatment. The classes of antibiotic resistance genes as impacted by treatment stages remain under explored. We report the classes of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) from shotgun metagenomes as influenced by treatment stages.
