To explore the prevalence and source of antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs) and pathogenic antibiotic resistant bacteria (PARB) associated with bioaerosols in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), metagenomic sequencing and assembly were applied to elucidate the antibiotic resistome of bioaerosols and wastewater in WWTPs. The results showed that more subtypes of ARGs and a higher abundance of PARB were found in bioaerosols from WWTPs and downwind than those from upwind. Multidrug and
