ResistoMap - online visualization of human gut microbiota antibiotic resistome

SummaryWe created ResistoMap -- a Web-based interactive visualization of the presence of genetic determinants conferring resistance to antibiotics, biocides and heavy metals in human gut microbiota. ResistoMap displays the data about more than 1600 published gut metagenomes of the world populations including both healthy subjects and patients. Multiparameter display filters allow visual assessment of the associations between the meta-data and proportions of resistome. The geographic map navigation layer allows to state hypotheses regarding the global trends of antibiotic resistance and correlate the gut resistome variations with the national clinical guidelines on antibiotics application.\n\nAvailability and implementationResistoMap is publicly available at http://resistomap.datalaboratory.ru
