Developing strategies for the prevention of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARG) in wastewater treatment facilities, such as municipal sewage lagoons, is important to prevent ARG introduction and proliferation environment. While previous studies have shown promising results reducing ARGs through biological phytoremediation systems like Constructed Wetlands, underlying mechanisms impact water chemistry on reduction remain poorly understood. This study used metagenomics investigate effect three different treatments microbial community resistome. The indicated that each significantly reduced metal (MRGs). A network analysis identified eight bacterial genera strongly associated with genes, six which belonged phylum Pseudomonadota two Campylobacteria. Of Pseudomonadota, four were facultative anaerobes. strong correlation was observed between iron (Fe) concentration total abundance ( r = 0.95), well (across measured metals) 0.93). Additionally, there a significant Fe 0.86). implies high concentrations may favor ARG-harboring bacteria by providing an electron donor anaerobic respiration. suggests phytoextraction metals, including Fe, play role treated columns. These findings offer valuable insights into how removal can effectively reduce levels wastewater.
