A) resistome PCA using the fifteen most important genes based on mean decrease accuracy of Random Forest analysis. Teredinibacter forms a major group influenced by polyamine, isoniazid, and PK-NRP-derived antibiotics. B) Relative abundance of resistance gene markers, BGCs, and NRPS, PKS and hybrid BGCs. C) Host associated bacteria present a significantly larger metabolome and abundance of NRPS, PKS and their hybrid metabolic paths than free living bacteria. One asterisk represents Kruskal-Wallis test p-values <0.001 and two represent <0.0001 both adjusted with Bonferroni method.
