Heatmap of the most abundant resistance genes on chromosomal and plasmidic contigs. Most abundant resistance genes are based on number of hits, found on A chromosomal (threshold > 15 total hits based on 30 genes with highest number of hits) and B plasmidic contigs (threshold > 4 total hits based on 30 genes with highest number of hits). Dendrograms clusters are based on the Euclidean distance. SFD, swab samples of cleaned feeders and drinkers of empty cleaned pens; SWF, swab sample of walls and floor of the pens prior to introduction of weaned piglets; FW0, faecal samples at the day of weaning; FW1, faecal samples 1 week post-weaning; FW2, faecal samples 2 weeks post-weaning
