Figure 4

Principal component analysis biplot of the AR patterns of the E. coli phylogenetic groups from the three sampling sites along the Al-Hillah River. The red arrows indicate E. coli isolates resistant to 15 antibiotics with respect to their phylogenetic groups. Class I, CN, aminoglycosidase: gentamicin; AK: amikacin; S: streptomycin, Class II, TE, tetracyclines: tetracycline; DO: doxycycline, Class III, AMP, β-lactams: ampicillin; IMP: imipenem; KF: cephalothin; FOX: cefoxitin; CTX: cefotaxime; FEP: cefepime, Class IV, NOR, fluoroquinolone: norfloxacin; CIP: ciprofloxacin, Class V, FF: fosfomycin, Class VI, C, phenicol: chloramphenicol.
