Conceptual diagram of study design. This study included a survey of the participants to gather information on the children/infants and observational data about each household. Household soil/dust and drinking water were collected from each house. Drinking water quality was tested on site. Fecal samples were collected from children, infants, and chickens. Household soil/dust was further analyzed via quantification of microbial source tracking (MST) and pathogenic marker genes. Chickens and a subset of household soil/dust samples were sent for 16S rRNA gene sequencing for microbial community analysis. Long-read metagenomic sequencing was completed for child/infant fecal samples. All inputs described were used in the final statistical analyses of the factors influencing the child/infant gut microbiomes and resistome
