673200.9334Assessment of Bioavailability of Biochar-Sorbed Tetracycline to Escherichia coli for Activation of Antibiotic Resistance Genes. Human overuse and misuse of antibiotics have caused the wide dissemination of antibiotics in the environment, which has promoted the development and proliferation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in soils. Biochar (BC) with strong sorption affinity to many antibiotics is considered to sequester antibiotics and hence mitigate their impacts to bacterial communities in soils. However, little is known about whether BC-sorbed antibiotics are bioavailable and exert selective pressure on soil bacteria. In this study, we probed the bioavailability of tetracycline sorbed by BCs prepared from rice-, wheat-, maize-, and bean-straw feedstock using Escherichia coli MC4100/pTGM bioreporter strain. The results revealed that BC-sorbed tetracycline was still bioavailable to the E. coli attached to BC surfaces. Tetracycline sorbed by BCs prepared at 400 °C (BC400) demonstrated a higher bioavailability to bacteria compared to that sorbed by BCs prepared at 500 °C (BC500). Tetracycline could be sorbed primarily in the small pores of BC500 where bacteria could not access due to the size exclusion to bacteria. In contrast, tetracycline could be sorbed mainly on BC400 surfaces where bacteria could conveniently access tetracycline. Increasing the ambient humidity apparently enhanced the bioavailability of BC400-sorbed tetracycline. BC500-sorbed tetracycline exposed to varying levels of ambient humidity showed no significant changes in bioavailability, indicating that water could not effectively mobilize tetracycline from BC500 pores to surfaces where bacteria could access tetracycline. The results from this study suggest that BCs prepared at a higher pyrolysis temperature could be more effective to sequester tetracycline and mitigate the selective pressure on soil bacteria.202032786566
673310.9321Bioavailability of tetracycline to antibiotic resistant Escherichia coli in water-clay systems. Tetracyclines are a class of antimicrobials frequently found in the environment, and have promoted the proliferation of antibiotic resistance. An unanswered research question is whether tetracycline sorbed to soils is still bioavailable to bacteria and exerts selective pressure on the bacterial community for the development of antibiotic resistance. In this study, bioreporter E. coli MC4100/pTGM strain was used to probe the bioavailability of tetracycline sorbed by smectite clay, a class of common soil minerals. Batch sorption experiments were conducted to prepare clay samples with a wide range of sorbed tetracycline concentration. The bioreporter was incubated with tetracycline-sorbed clay at different clay/solution ratios and water contents, as well as using dialysis tubings to prevent the direct contact between bacterial cells and clay particles. The expression of antibiotic resistance genes from the bioreporter was measured using a flow cytometer as a measurement of bioavailability/selective pressure. The direct contact of bioreporter cells to clay surfaces represented an important pathway facilitating bacterial access to clay-sorbed tetracycline. In clay-water suspensions, reducing solution volume rendered more bacteria to attach to clay surfaces enhancing the bioavailability of clay-sorbed tetracycline. The strong fluorescence emission from bioreporter cells on clay surfaces indicated that clay-sorbed tetracycline was still bioavailable to bacteria. The formation of biofilms on clay surfaces could increase bacterial access to clay-sorbed tetracycline. In addition, desorption of loosely sorbed tetracycline into bulk solution contributed to bacterial exposure and activation of the antibiotic resistance genes. Tetracycline sorbed by soil geosorbents could exert selective pressure on the surrounding microbial communities via bacterial exposure to tetracycline in solution from desorption and to the geosorbent-sorbed tetracycline as well.201830253298
706020.9274Antibiotic resistance partitioning during on-farm manure separation and high temperature rotary drum composting. Manure application as fertilizer can increase environmental exposure risk, as antibiotics, antibiotic resistance bacteria (ARB), and antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs) can be transmitted to agricultural fields, and adjacent natural systems. Understanding how specific antibiotics and ARGs respond within different manure fractions during on-farm management is limited. The study objective was to conduct a mass flow analysis determining the fate of antibiotic resistance factors (antibiotics, ARGs, and ARB) through solid-liquid separation, with the solid fraction continuing through a bedding recovery unit (BRU) via high temperature rotary composting for use of the manure solids as dairy cow bedding. The results show that most of the manure mass containing the antibiotic resistance factors went untreated following solid-liquid separation, with 95% of the mass leaving the separator as a liquid and pumped to a storage lagoon for field application and 5% proceeding to BRU processing. The tetracyclines and tulathromycin sorbed to the manure solids, while the beta lactams, ampicillin, and benzylpenicilloic acid were only found in the liquid fraction. The removal of antibiotic residuals during the BRU composting was insignificant, yet 40%-73% of the antibiotics were in the liquid fraction. The BRU composting was 100% effective in removing the ARB examined. Five of the eight ARGs (intl1, sul1, tetQ, tetX, and tetM) had significant reduction (>95%) following the BRU composting treatment. While the three other ARGs (tetW, ermB, and bla2) remained constant despite treatment. This study highlighted the importance of examining manure management from a mass balance perspective and understanding antibiotic resistance risk factors.202539617587
811730.9258Composting of oxytetracycline fermentation residue in combination with hydrothermal pretreatment for reducing antibiotic resistance genes enrichment. Hydrothermal pretreatment can efficiently remove the residual antibiotics in oxytetracycline fermentation residue (OFR), but its effect on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) during composting remains unclear. This study compared the shifts in bacterial community and evolutions in ARGs and integrons during different composting processes of OFRs with and without hydrothermal pretreatment. The results demonstrated that hydrothermal pretreatment increased the bacterial alpha diversity at the initial phase, and increased the relative abundances of Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria but decreased that of Bacteroidetes at the final phase by inactivating mycelia and removing residual oxytetracycline. Composting process inevitably elevated the abundance and relative abundance of ARGs. However, the increase in ARGs was significantly reduced by hydrothermal pretreatment, because the removal of oxytetracycline decreased their potential host bacteria and inhibited their horizontal gene transfer. The results demonstrated that hydrothermal pretreatment is an efficient strategy to reduce the enrichment of ARGs during the OFR composting.202033099099
811640.9251Effect of homemade compound microbial inoculum on the reduction of terramycin and antibiotic resistance genes in terramycin mycelial dreg aerobic composting and its mechanism. In order to tackle the issue of terramycin mycelial dreg (TMD) diagnosis and removal of terramycin and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), this study adopted aerobic composting (AC) technology and added homemade compound microbial inoculum (HCMI) to promote the AC of TMD and enhance the removal of terramycin and ARGs. The findings demonstrated that terramycin residue could be basically harmless after AC. Moreover, HCMI not only reduced QacB and tetH but also increased the degradation rates of VanRA, VanT, and dfrA24 by 40.81%, 5.65%, and 54.18%, respectively. The HCMI improved the removal rate of ARG subtypes to a certain extent. According to redundancy analysis, during AC, the succession of the microbial community had a stronger influence on the variance of ARG subtype than the environmental conditions. Differences in the abundance of various bacteria due to changes in temperature may be an intrinsic mechanism for the variation of ARG subtypes.202336403916
810950.9247The fate of antibiotic resistance genes and their influential factors in swine manure composting with sepiolite as additive. Manures are storages for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) entering the environment. This study investigated the effects of adding sepiolite at 0%, 2.5%, 5%, and 7.5% (CK, T1, T2, and T3, respectively) on the fates of ARGs during composting. The relative abundances (RAs) of the total ARGs in CK and T3 decreased by 0.23 and 0.46 logs, respectively, after composting. The RAs of 10/11 ARGs decreased in CK, whereas they all decreased in T3. The reduction in the RA of the total mobile genetic elements (MGEs) was 1.26 times higher in T3 compared with CK after composting. The bacterial community accounted for 47.93% of the variation in the abundances of ARGs. Network analysis indicated that ARGs and MGEs shared potential host bacteria (PHB), and T3 controlled the transmission of ARGs by reducing the abundances of PHB. Composting with 7.5% sepiolite is an effective strategy for reducing the risk of ARGs proliferating.202235063626
790060.9247Biochar-amended constructed wetlands enhance sulfadiazine removal and reduce resistance genes accumulation in treatment of mariculture wastewater. With the rapid development of mariculture, an increasing amount of antibiotics are being discharged into the marine environment. Effectively removing antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in mariculture wastewater with a relatively high salinity and low C/N presents challenges. Biochar-amended constructed wetlands (CWs) can effectively remove antibiotics, However, few studies have compared the impacts of biochar-amended CWs pyrolyzed at different temperatures on the treatment of mariculture wastewater. Thus, this study utilized biochar prepared at three temperatures as substrate for CWs (CW-300, CW-500, and CW-700), aiming to evaluate their efficiency to treat mariculture wastewater containing antibiotic sulfadiazine (SDZ). The results demonstrated that compared to traditional quartz sand-filled CW (NCW), the addition of biochar with a larger specific surface area significantly enhanced the removal efficiency of SDZ by 21.72%-46.96%. Additionally, the addition of biochar effectively reduced the relative abundance of one integron gene (int1) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) including sul1, sul2, and sul3 in both effluent and substrates. The addition of biochar reduced the accumulation of extracellular polymeric substances within the substrate of CWs, thereby mitigating the proliferation and spread of ARGs. The microbial community structure indicated that the addition of biochar increased the abundance of the potential antibiotic-degrading bacteria such as Proteobacteria and Bacteroidota, facilitating the degradation of SDZ and mitigating the accumulation of ARGs. This study demonstrated that biochar can be a promising substrate in CWs for treating mariculture wastewater containing antibiotics.202539986428
811270.9245Fate of antibiotic resistance bacteria and genes during enhanced anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge by microwave pretreatment. The fate of antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) were investigated during the sludge anaerobic digestion (AD) with microwave-acid (MW-H), microwave (MW) and microwave-H2O2-alkaline (MW-H2O2) pretreatments. Results showed that combined MW pretreatment especially for the MW-H pretreatment could efficiently reduce the ARB concentration, and most ARG concentrations tended to attenuate during the pretreatment. The subsequent AD showed evident removal of the ARB, but most ARGs were enriched after AD. Only the concentration of tetX kept continuous declination during the whole sludge treatment. The total ARGs concentration showed significant correlation with 16S rRNA during the pretreatment and AD. Compared with unpretreated sludge, the AD of MW and MW-H2O2 pretreated sludge presented slightly better ARB and ARGs reduction efficiency.201626970692
805880.9244Effects of biochars on the fate of antibiotics and their resistance genes during vermicomposting of dewatered sludge. It is currently still difficult to decrease the high contents of antibiotics and their corresponding antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in sludge vermicompost. To decrease the environmental risk of vermicompost as a bio-fertilizer, this study investigated the feasibility of biochar addition to decrease the levels of antibiotics and ARGs during vermicomposting of dewatered sludge. To achieve this, 1.25% and 5% of corncob and rice husk biochars, respectively, were added to sludge, which was then vermicomposted by Eisenia fetida for 60 days. The sludge blended with corncob biochar showed increased decomposition and humification of organic matter. Higher biochar concentration promoted both the number and diversity of bacteria, and differed dominant genera. The level of antibiotics significantly decreased as a result of biochar addition (P < 0.05), and tetracycline was completely removed. Relative to the control without addition of biochars, ermF and tetX genes significantly decreased with corncob biochar treatment (P < 0.05). Rice husk biochar (5%) could effectively decrease sul-1 and sul-2 genes in vermicompost (P < 0.05). However, the abundance of the intI-1 gene increased with biochar concentration. This study suggests that biochar addition can lessen the antibiotic and ARG pollution in sludge vermicompost, depending on the type and concentration of biochars.202032388093
812390.9244The effect of bulk-biochar and nano-biochar amendment on the removal of antibiotic resistance genes in microplastic contaminated soil. Biochar amendment has significant benefits in removing antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the soil. Nevertheless, there is little information on ARGs removal in microplastic contaminated soil. Herein, a 42-day soil microcosm experiment were carried out to study how two coconut shell biochars (bulk- and nano-size) eliminate soil ARGs with/without microplastic presence. The results showed that microplastic increased significantly the numbers and abundances of ARGs in soil at 14d of cultivation. And, two biochars amendment effectively inhibited soil ARGs spread whether or not microplastic was present, especially for nano-biochar which had more effective removal compared to bulk-biochar. However, microplastic weakened soil ARGs removal after applying same biochar. Two biochars removed ARGs through decreasing horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of ARGs, potential host-bacteria abundances, some bacteria crowding the eco-niche of hosts and promoting soil properties. The adverse effect of microplastic on ARGs removal was mainly caused by weakening mobile genetic elements (MGEs) removal, and by changing soil properties. Structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis indicated that biochar's effect on ARGs profile was changed by its size and microplastic presence through altering MGEs abundances. These results highlight that biochar amendment is still an effective method for ARGs removal in microplastic contaminated soil.202437907163
8119100.9242Biochar-amended composting of lincomycin fermentation dregs promoted microbial metabolism and reduced antibiotic resistance genes. Improper disposal of antibiotic fermentation dregs poses a risk of releasing antibiotics and antibiotic resistant bacteria to the environment. Therefore, this study evaluated the effects of biochar addition to lincomycin fermentation dregs (LFDs) composting. Biochar increased compost temperature and enhanced organic matter decomposition and residual antibiotics removal. Moreover, a 1.5- to 17.0-fold reduction in antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) was observed. Adding biochar also reduced the abundances of persistent ARGs hosts (e.g., Streptomyces, Pseudomonas) and ARG-related metabolic pathways and genes (e.g., ATP-binding cassette type-2 transport, signal transduction and multidrug efflux pump genes). By contrast, compost decomposition improved due to enhanced metabolism of carbohydrates and amino acids. Overall, adding biochar into LFDs compost reduced the proliferation of ARGs and enhanced microbial community metabolism. These results demonstrate that adding biochar to LFDs compost is a simple and efficient way to decrease risks associated with LFDs composting.202336334868
7876110.9241Sulfamethoxazole impact on pollutant removal and microbial community of aerobic granular sludge with filamentous bacteria. In this study, sulfamethoxazole (SMX) was employed to investigate its impact on the process of aerobic granule sludge with filamentous bacteria (FAGS). FAGS has shown great tolerance ability. FAGS in a continuous flow reactor (CFR) could keep stable with 2 μg/L of SMX addition during long-term operation. The NH(4)(+), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and SMX removal efficiencies kept higher than 80%, 85%, and 80%, respectively. Both adsorption and biodegradation play important roles in SMX removal for FAGS. The extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) might play important role in SMX removal and FAGS tolerance to SMX. The EPS content increased from 157.84 mg/g VSS to 328.22 mg/g VSS with SMX addition. SMX has slightly affected on microorganism community. A high abundance of Rhodobacter, Gemmobacter, and Sphaerotilus of FAGS may positively correlate to SMX. The SMX addition has led to the increase in the abundance of the four sulfonamide resistance genes in FAGS.202336871701
7905120.9240Long-term responses of antibiotic resistance genes under high concentration of enrofloxacin, sulfadiazine and triclosan in aerobic granular sludge system. It is worth to reveal the long-term responses of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in aerobic granular sludge (AGS) system exposed to high level enrofloxacin (ENR), sulfadiazine (SDZ) and triclosan (TCS). In present study, ppm level ENR, SDZ and TCS were added into three AGS reactors, respectively. ARGs in ENR and SDZ systems showed trends of increasing first and then decreasing, which were contrary to that in TCS system. 80%, 56% and 40% ARGs in ENR, SDZ and TCS systems, respectively, were enriched after loading, but several ARGs still kept high enrichment values after the withdrawn of loadings. The dominant bacteria in ENR (Flavobacterium), SDZ (Candidatus_Competibacter and Defluviicoccus) and TCS (Defluviicoccus) systems might contribute to the reductions of ARGs. IntI1 altered the overall ARGs profiles through horizontal gene transfer. The interactions of bacterial communities and environmental factors might be responsible for the different ARGs patterns in ENR, SDZ and TCS systems.202032470826
8110130.9240Removal of chlortetracycline and antibiotic resistance genes in soil by earthworms (epigeic Eisenia fetida and endogeic Metaphire guillelmi). The impacts of two ecological earthworms on the removal of chlortetracycline (CTC, 0.5 and 15 mg kg(-1)) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in soil were explored through the soil column experiments. The findings showed that earthworm could significantly accelerate the degradation of CTC and its metabolites (ECTC) in soil (P < 0.05), with epigeic Eisenia fetida promoting degradation rapidly and endogeic Metaphire guillelmi exhibiting a slightly better elimination effect. Earthworms alleviated the abundances of tetR, tetD, tetPB, tetG, tetA, sul1, TnpA, ttgB and intI1 in soil, with the total relative abundances of ARGs decreasing by 35.0-44.2% in earthworm treatments at the 28th day of cultivation. High throughput sequencing results displayed that the structure of soil bacteria community was modified apparently with earthworm added, and some possible CTC degraders, Aeromonas, Flavobacterium and Luteolibacter, were promoted by two kinds of earthworms. Redundancy analysis demonstrated that the reduction of CTC residues, Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria and Gemmatimonadetes owing to earthworm stimulation was responsible for the removal of ARGs and intI1 in soil. Additionally, intI1 declined obviously in earthworm treatments, which could weaken the risk of horizontal transmission of ARGs. Therefore, earthworm could restore the CTC-contaminated soil via enhancing the removal of CTC, its metabolites and ARGs.202133798888
8099140.9239The fate of antibiotic resistance genes during co-composting of swine manure with cauliflower and corn straw. Composting is not completely effective in reducing antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in animal manure. This work studied the effects of different treatment conditions on the fate of ARGs in composting swine manure with cauliflower and corn straw as bulking agents. The results showed that the addition of microbial agents or the ratio of corn stalks to cauliflower (1:12) could significantly decrease the absolute abundances of most ARGs (an average of 480 times) compared with the control treatment. Principal component analysis indicated that bacterial communities were significantly correlated with ARG abundance, suggesting that microbial communities have an impact on ARG variation during co-composting. Redundancy and Network analysis confirmed the changing patterns of individual ARGs (qnrS, bla(AmpC), bla(TEM-1)) were influenced by the selectivity of host bacteria (Pseudomonas, Klebsiella, and Halocella) and environmental variables (TN, NH(3)-N, TOC, and pH). These findings helped to optimize composting conditions, thereby reducing the risk of ARGs spread.202031891854
6788150.9238Release and Constancy of an Antibiotic Resistance Gene in Seawater under Grazing Stress by Ciliates and Heterotrophic Nanoflagellates. Extracellular DNA (exDNA) is released from bacterial cells through various processes. The antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) coded on exDNA may be horizontally transferred among bacterial communities by natural transformation. We quantitated the released/leaked tetracycline resistance gene, tet(M) over time under grazing stress by ciliates and heterotrophic nanoflagellates (HNFs), and found that extracellular tet(M) (ex-tetM) increased with bacterial grazing. Separate microcosms containing tet(M)-possessing bacteria with ciliates or HNFs were prepared. The copy number of ex-tetM in seawater in the ciliate microcosm rapidly increased until 3 d after the incubation, whereas that in the HNF microcosm showed a slower increase until 20 d. The copy number of ex-tetM was stable in both cases throughout the incubation period, suggesting that extracellular ARGs are preserved in the environment, even in the presence of grazers. Additionally, ARGs in bacterial cells were constant in the presence of grazers. These results suggest that ARGs are not rapidly extinguished in a marine environment under grazing stress.201728592722
7538160.9238Short-term thermophilic treatment cannot remove tetracycline resistance genes in pig manures but exhibits controlling effects on their accumulation and spread in soil. In this work, a microcosm experiment was conducted to merely mimic thermophilic phase in aerobic composting with pig manures in order to explore: (i) the effect of thermophilic phase in composting on the abundances of tetracycline resistance genes (TRGs); and (ii) the impacts of the treated manures on the abundances of TRGs in soil. It was found that 4days of thermophilic process reduced the abundance of TRGs in pig manures by ∼1 lg unit compared to the samples without treatments, suggesting that other phases in composting may play significant roles in removal of TRGs. Once pig manures with thermophilic treatment were applied to soil, TRGs abundances decreased to the levels in unfertilized soil. With correlation analyses, it was concluded that pig manure derived tetracycline-resistant bacteria (TRB) and nutrients exerted different effects on TRGs abundances in soil. In conclusion, short-term thermophilic treatment cannot remove tetracycline resistance genes in pig manures but exhibits controlling effects on their accumulation and spread in soil. Nutrients enrichment in soil following manuring of treated pig manures, together with a large proportion of gram-positive TRB left in treated pig manures with less risk to TRGs spread, contributed to the controlling effects.201728715744
7073170.9237Fecal Indicator Bacteria and Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Storm Runoff from Dairy Manure and Compost-Amended Vegetable Plots. Given the presence of antibiotics and resistant bacteria in livestock manures, it is important to identify the key pathways by which land-applied manure-derived soil amendments potentially spread resistance. The goal of this field-scale study was to identify the effects of different types of soil amendments (raw manure from cows treated with cephapirin and pirlimycin, compost from antibiotic-treated or antibiotic-free cows, or chemical fertilizer only) and crop type (lettuce [ L.] or radish [ L.]) on the transport of two antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs; 1 and ) via storm runoff from six naturally occurring storms. Concurrent quantification of sediment and fecal indicator bacteria (FIB; and enterococci) in runoff permitted comparison to traditional agricultural water quality targets that may be driving factors of ARG presence. Storm characteristics (total rainfall volume, storm duration, etc.) significantly influenced FIB concentration (two-way ANOVA, < 0.05), although both effects from individual storm events (Kruskal-Wallis, < 0.05) and vegetative cover influenced sediment levels. Composted and raw manure-amended plots both yielded significantly higher 1 and B levels in runoff for early storms, at least 8 wk following initial planting, relative to fertilizer-only or unamended barren plots. There was no significant difference between 1 or B levels in runoff from plots treated with compost derived from antibiotic-treated versus antibiotic-free dairy cattle. Our findings indicate that agricultural fields receiving manure-derived amendments release higher quantities of these two "indicator" ARGs in runoff, particularly during the early stages of the growing season, and that composting did not reduce effects of ARG loading in runoff.201931589689
7992180.9237Impact of bioaccessible pyrene on the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes during Sphingobium sp.- and sophorolipid-enhanced bioremediation in soil. Soils are exposed to various types of chemical contaminants due to anthropogenic activities; however, research on persistent organic pollutants and the existence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is limited. To our knowledge, the present work for the first time focused on the bioremediation of soil co-contaminated with pyrene and tetracycline/sulfonamide-resistance genes. After 90 days of incubation, the pyrene concentration and the abundance of the four ARGs (tetW, tetM, sulI, and sulII) significantly decreased in different treatment conditions (p<0.05). The greatest pyrene removal (47.8%) and greatest decrease in ARG abundance (from 10(-7) to 10(-8) ARG copies per 16S rRNA copy) were observed in microcosms with a combination of bacterial and sophorolipid treatment. Throughout the incubation, pyrene bioaccessibility constantly declined in the microcosm inoculated with bacteria. However, an increased pyrene bioaccessibility and ARG abundance at day 40 were observed in soil treated with sophorolipid alone. Tenax extraction methods and linear correlation analysis indicated a strong positive relationship between the rapidly desorbing fraction (Fr) of pyrene and ARG abundance. Therefore, we conclude that bioaccessible pyrene rather than total pyrene plays a major role in the maintenance and fluctuation of ARG abundance in the soil.201526164069
6928190.9235Assessing the effects of tylosin fermentation dregs as soil amendment on macrolide antibiotic resistance genes and microbial communities: Incubation study. Tylosin fermentation dregs (TFDs) are biosolid waste of antibiotics tylosin production process which contain nutritious components and may be recycled as soil amendments. However, the specific ecological safety of TFDs from the perspective of bacterial resistance in soil microenvironment is not fully explored. In the present study, a series of replicated lab-scale work were performed using the simulated fertilization to gain insight into the potential environmental effects and risks of macrolide antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and the soil microbial communities composition via quantitative PCR and 16S rRNA sequencing following the TFDs land application as the soil amendments. The results showed that bio-processes might play an important role in the decomposition of tylosin which degraded above 90% after 20 days in soil. The application of TFDs might induce the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, change soil environment and reduce the microbial diversity. Though the abundances of macrolide ARGs exhibited a decreasing trend following the tylosin degradation, other components in TFDs may have a lasting impact on both macrolide ARGs abundance and soil bacterial communities. Thus, this study pointed out the fate of TFDs on soil ecological environment when directly applying into soil, and provide valuable scientific basis for TFDs management.202032648501
