| 6873 | 0 | 0.9300 | Plastic wastes and surface antibiotic resistance genes pollution in mangrove environments. Mangroves are located at the intersection of land and sea and are also heavily affected by plastic wastes. Biofilms of plastic wastes in mangroves are reservoirs for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). In this study, plastic wastes and ARG pollution were investigated from three typical mangrove areas in Zhanjiang, South China. Transparent was the dominant colors of plastic wastes in three mangroves. Fragment and film shape accounted for 57.73-88.23% of plastic waste samples in mangroves. In addition, 39.50% of plastic wastes in protected area mangroves are PS. The metagenomic results shows that the 175 ARGs were found on plastic wastes of the three mangroves, the abundance accounting for 91.11% of the total ARGs. The abundance of Vibrio accounted for 2.31% of the total bacteria genera in aquaculture pond area mangrove. Correlation analysis shows that a microbe can carry multiple ARGs that may improve resistance to antibiotics. Microbes are the potential hosts of most ARGs, suggesting that ARGs can be transmitted by microbes. Because the mangroves are closely related to human activities and the high abundance of ARGs on plastic increases the ecological risks, people should improve plastic waste management and prevent the spread of ARGs by reducing plastic pollution. | 2023 | 37133617 |
| 7160 | 1 | 0.9296 | High-throughput profiling of antibiotic resistance genes in the Yellow River of Henan Province, China. Profiling antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the Yellow River of China's Henan Province is essential for understanding the health risks of antibiotic resistance. The profiling of ARGs was investigated using high-throughput qPCR from water samples in seven representative regions of the Yellow River. The absolute and relative abundances of ARGs and moble genetic elements (MGEs) were higher in summer than in winter (ANOVA, p < 0.001). The diversity and abundance of ARGs were higher in the Yellow River samples from PY and KF than the other sites. Temperature (r = 0.470 ~ 0.805, p < 0.05) and precipitation (r = 0.492 ~ 0.815, p < 0.05) positively influenced the ARGs, while pH had a negative effect (r = - 0.462 ~ - 0.849, p < 0.05). Network analysis indicated that the pathogenic bacteria Rahnella, Bacillus, and Shewanella were the possible hub hosts of ARGs, and tnpA1 was the potential MGE hub. These findings provide insights into the factors influencing ARG dynamics and the complex interaction among the MGEs, pathogenic bacteria and environmental parameters in enriching ARGs in the Yellow River of Henan Province. | 2024 | 39080455 |
| 3482 | 2 | 0.9293 | Metagenomic profiling of ARGs in airborne particulate matters during a severe smog event. Information is currently limited regarding the distribution of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in smog and their correlations with airborne bacteria. This study characterized the diversity and abundance of ARGs in the particulate matters (PMs) of severe smog based on publicly available metagenomic data, and revealed the occurrence of 205 airborne ARG subtypes, including 31 dominant ones encoding resistance to 11 antibiotic types. Among the detectable ARGs, tetracycline, β-lactam and aminoglycoside resistance genes had the highest abundance, and smog and soil had similar composition characteristics of ARGs. During the smog event, the total abundance of airborne ARGs ranged from 4.90 to 38.07ppm in PM(2.5) samples, and from 7.61 to 38.49ppm in PM(10) samples, which were 1.6-7.7 times and 2.1-5.1 times of those in the non-smog day, respectively. The airborne ARGs showed complicated co-occurrence patterns, which were heavily influenced by the interaction of bacterial community, and physicochemical and meteorological factors. Lactobacillus and sulfonamide resistance gene sul1 were determined as keystones in the co-occurrence network of microbial taxa and airborne ARGs. The results may help to understand the distribution patterns of ARGs in smog for the potential health risk evaluation. | 2018 | 29751438 |
| 6382 | 3 | 0.9291 | Distribution status and influencing factors of antibiotic resistance genes in the Chaohu Lake, China. BACKGROUND: Chaohu Lake (CL) is one of the most polluted areas in China due to its high content of antibiotics. However, the distribution and influencing factors of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in this lake are still controversial. METHODS: To solve this problem, we used metagenomic sequencing to investigate the distribution and in-fluencing factors of ARGs in CL. RESULTS: Our findings revealed the existence of nine kinds of ARGs, including 45 specific genes. The most abundant types were multidrug, bacitracin, polymyxin, macrolide lincosamide streptogramin, and aminoglycoside. Multiple microorganisms were undeniable ARG reservoirs, although they were not dominant species in the microbiota. Our results also showed that both the microbiota and physiochemical factors played important roles in shaping the distributions of ARGs in CL. Specifically, the levels of PO4-P (0.5927) and total phosphorus (0.4971) had a greater impact than total nitrogen (0.0515), NO(3-)N (0.0352), NO2-N (-0.1975), and NH3-N (-0.0952). CONCLUSIONS: These findings provide valuable insights into the distribution and influencing factors of ARGs in lakes. | 2025 | 40297464 |
| 5187 | 4 | 0.9291 | Recovery of 52 bacterial genomes from the fecal microbiome of the domestic cat (Felis catus) using Hi-C proximity ligation and shotgun metagenomics. We used Hi-C proximity ligation with shotgun sequencing to retrieve metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from the fecal microbiomes of two domestic cats (Felis catus). The genomes were assessed for completeness and contamination, classified taxonomically, and annotated for putative antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes. | 2023 | 37695121 |
| 3484 | 5 | 0.9288 | Occurrence of human pathogenic bacteria carrying antibiotic resistance genes revealed by metagenomic approach: A case study from an aquatic environment. Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), human pathogenic bacteria (HPB), and HPB carrying ARGs are public issues that pose a high risk to aquatic environments and public health. Their diversity and abundance in water, intestine, and sediments of shrimp culture pond were investigated using metagenomic approach. A total of 19 classes of ARGs, 52 HPB species, and 7 species of HPB carrying ARGs were found. Additionally, 157, 104, and 86 subtypes of ARGs were detected in shrimp intestine, pond water, and sediment samples, respectively. In all the samples, multidrug resistance genes were the highest abundant class of ARGs. The dominant HPB was Enterococcus faecalis in shrimp intestine, Vibrio parahaemolyticus in sediments, and Mycobacterium yongonense in water, respectively. Moreover, E. faecalis (contig Intestine_364647) and Enterococcus faecium (contig Intestine_80272) carrying efrA, efrB and ANT(6)-Ia were found in shrimp intestine, Desulfosaricina cetonica (contig Sediment_825143) and Escherichia coli (contig Sediment_188430) carrying mexB and APH(3')-IIa were found in sediments, and Laribacter hongkongensis (contig Water_478168 and Water_369477), Shigella sonnei (contig Water_880246), and Acinetobacter baumannii (contig Water_525520) carrying sul1, sul2, ereA, qacH, OXA-21, and mphD were found in pond water. Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) analysis indicated that horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of integrons, insertion sequences, and plasmids existed in shrimp intestine, sediment, and water samples, and the abundance of integrons was higher than that of other two MGEs. The results suggested that HPB carrying ARGs potentially existed in aquatic environments, and that these contributed to the environment and public health risk evaluation. | 2019 | 30952342 |
| 8109 | 6 | 0.9286 | The 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. | 2022 | 35063626 |
| 7738 | 7 | 0.9286 | The microbiome and its association with antibiotic resistance genes in the hadal biosphere at the Yap Trench. The hadal biosphere, the deepest part of the ocean, is known as the least-explored aquatic environment and hosts taxonomically diverse microbial communities. However, the microbiome and its association with antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the hadal ecosystem remain unknown. Here, we profiled the microbiome diversity and ARG occurrence in seawater and sediments of the Yap Trench (YT) using metagenomic sequencing. Within the prokaryote (bacteria and archaea) lineages, the main components of bacteria were Gammaproteobacteria (77.76 %), Firmicutes (8.36 %), and Alphaproteobacteria (2.25 %), whereas the major components of archaea were Nitrososphaeria (6.51 %), Nanoarchaeia (0.42 %), and Thermoplasmata (0.25 %), respectively. Taxonomy of viral contigs showed that the classified viral communities in YT seawater and sediments were dominated by Podoviridae (45.96 %), Siphoviridae (29.41 %), and Myoviridae (24.63 %). A large majority of viral contigs remained uncharacterized and exhibited endemicity. A total of 48 ARGs encoding resistance to 12 antibiotic classes were identified and their hosts were bacteria and viruses. Novel ARG subtypes mexF(YTV-1), mexF(YTV-2), mexF(YTV-3), vanR(YTV-1), vanS(YTV-1) (carried by unclassified viruses), and bacA(YTB-1) (carried by phylum Firmicutes) were detected in seawater samples. Overall, our findings imply that the hadal environment of the YT is a repository of viral and ARG diversity. | 2022 | 35870206 |
| 6384 | 8 | 0.9283 | Tidal flat aquaculture pollution governs sedimentary antibiotic resistance gene profiles but not bacterial community based on metagenomic data. Coastal tidal flats are intersection zones between terrestrial and marine environments and are considered repositories of pollutants from anthropogenic activities (e.g., fishery and aquaculture). Specifically, the prevalence of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in coastal aquaculture environments pose critical threats to estuarine ecosystems. However, the contribution of aquaculture to the occurrence and abundance of ARGs and community assemblies has not been fully explored in tidal flat zones. Thus, we investigated ARGs profiles, ARG-carrying host bacteria, and their associate microbial community in the Dongtai and Sheyang tidal flat aquaculture regions of Jiangsu, China using metagenomic assembly methods. The antibiotic concentrations in the sediment samples ranged from nd to 35.50 ng/g dw, and the antibiotic pollution in the Dongtai tidal flat was more severe than in the Sheyang tidal flats. Metagenomic assembly indicated that a total of 247 ARG subtypes associated with ARG 33 types were characterized across all samples and their abundance in the Dongtai region exceeded that in the Sheyang region. Meanwhile, 21 bacteria in the tidal flat aquaculture were identified as ARG-carrying pathogens, including Escherichia coli, Vibrio fluvialis, and Staphylococcus aureus. Using neutral and null modeling analysis to determine the community ecological processes, the results revealed bacterial and ARG communities were generally dominated by stochastic and deterministic processes, respectively. The above results suggested that aquaculture pollution was contributed to shape ARG profiles in tidal flats. The observed deterministic processes affecting the ARG community in tidal flat aquaculture also provides an effective foundation to control the risks of environmental antibiotic resistance through reducing aquaculture antibiotic usage. | 2022 | 35421458 |
| 6385 | 9 | 0.9281 | Study on microbes and antibiotic resistance genes in karst primitive mountain marshes - A case study of Niangniang Mountain in Guizhou, China. Previous research on antibiotic resistance genes and microorganisms centered on those in urban sewage treatment plants, breeding farms, hospitals and others with serious antibiotic pollution. However, at present, there are evident proofs that antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) indeed exist in a primitive environment hardly without any human's footprints. Accordingly, an original karst mountain swamp ecosystem in Niangniang Mountain, Guizhou, China, including herbaceous swamp, shrub swamp, sphagnum bog and forest swamp, was selected to analyze the physical and chemical parameters of sediments. Moreover, microbial compositions, functions, as well as their connections with ARGs were assayed and analyzed using metagenomic technology. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the dominant microorganisms and ARGs in the four marshes, in which the dominant bacteria phyla were Proteobacteria (37.82 %), Acidobacteriota (22.17 %) and Actinobacteriota (20.64 %); the dominant archaea Euryarchaeota. (1.00 %); and the dominant eukaryotes Ascomycota (0.07 %), with metabolism as their major functions. Based on the ARDB database, the number of ARGs annotated reached 209 including 30 subtypes, and the dominant ARGs were all Bacitracin resistance genes (bacA, 84.77 %). In terms of the diversity of microorganisms and ARGs, the herbaceous swamp ranked the top, and the shrub swamp were at the bottom. Correlation analysis between microorganisms and resistance genes showed that, apart from aac2ic, macB, smeE, tetQ, and tetL, other ARGs were positively correlated with microorganisms. Among them, baca coexisted with microorganisms. Pearson correlation analysis results showed that contrary to ARGs, microorganisms were more affected by environmental factors. | 2022 | 36306620 |
| 5192 | 10 | 0.9280 | Genome Sequencing Analysis of a Rare Case of Blood Infection Caused by Flavonifractor plautii. BACKGROUND Flavonifractor plautii belongs to the clostridium family, which can lead to local infections as well as the bloodstream infections. Flavonifractor plautii caused infection is rarely few in the clinic. To understand better Flavonifractor plautii, we investigated the drug sensitivity and perform genome sequencing of Flavonifractor plautii isolated from blood samples in China and explored the drug resistance and pathogenic mechanism of the bacteria. CASE REPORT The Epsilometer test method was used to detect the sensitivity of flavonoid bacteria to antimicrobial agents. PacBio sequencing technology was employed to sequence the whole genome of Flavonifractor plautii, and gene prediction and functional annotation were also analyzed. Flavonifractor plautii displayed sensitivity to most drugs but resistance to fluoroquinolones and tetracycline, potentially mediated by tet (W/N/W). The total genome size of Flavonifractor plautii was 4,573,303 bp, and the GC content was 59.78%. Genome prediction identified 4,506 open reading frames, including 9 ribosomal RNAs and 66 transfer RNAs. It was detected that the main virulence factor-coding genes of the bacteria were the capsule, polar flagella and FbpABC, which may be associated with bacterial movement, adhesion, and biofilm formation. CONCLUSIONS The results of whole-genome sequencing could provide relevant information about the drug resistance mechanism and pathogenic mechanism of bacteria and offer a basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment. | 2024 | 38881048 |
| 6789 | 11 | 0.9279 | Metagenomic insights on promoting the removal of resistome in aerobic composting pig manure by lightly burned modified magnesite. The antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have become a serious issue facing public health. In this study, light-burned magnesite with a high specific surface area at 650 °C (MS650) was used for aerobic composting, evaluating its effect on the resistome during pig manure composting. Different concentrations of MS650 reduced the abundance of the resistome, including seven high-risk ARGs, class two metal and biocide resistance genes (MBRGs), and human pathogenic bacteria (HPBs). The addition of 2.5 % MS650 (L1) in the composting had the best reduction effect on ARGs, MBRGs and HPBs. ARG and microbial community assembly are deterministic processes. Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria was the main factor associated with the decrease in ARGs, followed by virulence factor genes (VFGs, 44.2 %). The reduction in MBRGs by MS650 mainly suppressed HGT by reducing the Isfinder abundance. To summarize, MS650 is an effective method to improve emission reduction of ARGs and MBRGs. This study provided a theoretical basis for improving the engineering application potential of MS650. | 2024 | 39490844 |
| 8107 | 12 | 0.9279 | Effects of micron-scale zero valent iron on behaviors of antibiotic resistance genes and pathogens in thermophilic anaerobic digestion of waste activated sludge. This work investigated the metagenomics-based behavior and risk of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), and their potential hosts during thermophilic anaerobic digestion (TAD) of waste activated sludge, enhanced by micron-scale zero valent iron (mZVI). Tests were conducted with 0, 25, 100, and 250 mg mZVI/g total solids (TS). Results showed that up to 7.3% and 4.8% decrease in ARGs' abundance and diversity, respectively, were achieved with 100 mg mZVI/g TS. At these conditions, ARGs with health risk in abundance and human pathogenic bacteria (HPB) diversity were also decreased by 8.3% and 3.6%, respectively. Additionally, mZVI reduced abundance of 72 potential pathogenic supercarriers for ARGs with high health risk by 2.5%, 5.0%, and 6.1%, as its dosage increased. Overall, mZVI, especially at 100 mg/g TS, can mitigate antibiotic resistance risk in TAD. These findings are important for better understanding risks of ARGs and their pathogenic hosts in ZVI-enhanced TAD of solid wastes. | 2023 | 36931448 |
| 6992 | 13 | 0.9278 | Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and their eco-environmental response in the Bohai Sea sediments. Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are an important class of pollutants in the environment. This study investigated the characteristics and ecological effects of ARGs in the Bohai Sea sediments. The results showed that ARGs are widely distributed, and exhibit significant spatial and subtype variations, with absolute abundance following the decreasing order of Liaodong Bay, Laizhou Bay, Bohai Bay, and Bohai Strait. Tetracycline ARGs dominated, comprising 50 % to 62 % of all ARGs, with tetM having the highest abundance at 1.43 × 10(7) copies/g. Symbiotic network analysis revealed that the phyla Deinococcota, Dadabacteria were serve as the primary likely host of ARGs. The ARGs have a wide range of potential hosts, and bacteria often carry multiple ARGs, enhancing the mobility and ecological niche adaptation of ARGs. This study will provide an important reference for assessing ARGs pollution in semi-enclosed seas. | 2024 | 39303552 |
| 1253 | 14 | 0.9277 | Phenotypic and Genotypic Assessment of Antibiotic Resistance and Genotyping of vacA, cagA, iceA, oipA, cagE, and babA2 Alleles of Helicobacter pylori Bacteria Isolated from Raw Meat. BACKGROUND: Foodstuffs with animal origins, particularly meat, are likely reservoirs of Helicobacter pylori. PURPOSE: An existing survey was accompanied to assess phenotypic and genotypic profiles of antibiotic resistance and genotyping of vacA, cagA, cagE, iceA, oipA, and babA2 alleles amongst the H. pylori bacteria recovered from raw meat. METHODS: Six-hundred raw meat samples were collected and cultured. H. pylori isolates were tested using disk diffusion and PCR identification of antibiotic resistance genes and genotyping. RESULTS: Fifty-two out of 600 (8.66%) raw meat samples were contaminated with H. pylori. Raw ovine meat (13.07%) had the uppermost contamination. H. pylori bacteria displayed the uppermost incidence of resistance toward tetracycline (82.69%), erythromycin (80.76%), trimethoprim (65.38%), levofloxacin (63.46%), and amoxicillin (63.46%). All H. pylori bacteria had at least resistance toward one antibiotic, even though incidence of resistance toward more than eight antibiotics was 28.84%. Total distribution of rdxA, pbp1A, gyrA, and cla antibiotic resistance genes were 59.61%, 51.92%, 69.23%, and 65.38%, respectively. VacA s1a (84.61%), s2 (76.92%), m1a (50%), m2 (39.13%), iceA1 (38.46%), and cagA (55.76%) were the most generally perceived alleles. S1am1a (63.46%), s2m1a (53.84%), s1am2 (51.92%), and s2m2 (42.30%) were the most generally perceived genotyping patterns. Frequency of cagA-, oipA-, and babA2- genotypes were 44.23%, 73.07%, and 80.76%, respectively. A total of 196 combined genotyping patterns were also perceived. CONCLUSION: The role of raw meat, particularly ovine meat, in transmission of virulent and resistant H. pylori bacteria was determined. VacA and cagA genotypes had the higher incidence. CagE-, babA2-, and oipA- H. pylori bacteria had the higher distribution. Supplementary surveys are compulsory to originate momentous relations between distribution of genotypes, antibiotic resistance, and antibiotic resistance genes. | 2020 | 32099418 |
| 3496 | 15 | 0.9276 | Comparative metagenomic dataset of hospital effluent microbiome from rural and urban hospitals in West Bengal.

| 7161 | 16 | 0.9275 | Mitigating the risk of antibiotic resistance and pathogenic bacteria in swine waste: The role of ectopic fermentation beds. The ectopic fermentation bed (EFB) is used to recycle animal waste, but the fate and dynamic change of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) with biocide or heavy metal resistance genes (B/MRGs) and pathogens remain unclear. We performed metagenomic sequencing on 129 samples to study the resistome and bacteriome in pig feces from 24 farms, comparing these profiles with EFBs from five farms, and one farm's EFB was monitored for 154 days. Results showed pig feces from different cities (Chengdu, Meishan, and Chongqing) shared 284 of 311 ARG subtypes, with over 70 % being high-risk ARGs, and 106 of 114 pathogenic bacteria. Swine farms were heavily contaminated with co-occurrences of risky ARGs, B/MRGs, and pathogenic hosts, particularly Escherichia coli and Streptococcus suis being hosts of multidrug ARGs. The application of EFBs markedly mitigated these risks in feces, showing a 3.09-fold decrease in high-risk ARGs, a 72.22 % reduction in B/MRGs, a 3.95-fold drop in prioritized pathogens, an 89.09 % decline in the relative abundance of pig pathogens, and a simplification of their correlation networks and co-occurrence patterns. A mantel analysis revealed that metal contents (Fe, Mn, and Cu) and time influenced pathogen and ARG profiles. Pathogens, ARGs, and risk ARGs exhibited periodic variations, peaking at days 14, 84, and 154, with 70-day intervals. This study provides a comprehensive assessment of the risks associated with pig feces and EFBs and demonstrates that EFBs reduce ARG risks by inhibiting their associations with B/MRGs and pathogens. These findings can help guide and improve the management of antimicrobial resistance and pathogenic contaminants in EFB applications to reduce environmental pollution. | 2025 | 40220395 |

| 7740 | 18 | 0.9275 | Diversity, functions, and antibiotic resistance genes of bacteria and fungi are examined in the bamboo plant phyllosphere that serve as food for the giant pandas. The phyllosphere of bamboo is rich in microorganisms that can disrupt the intestinal microbiota of the giant pandas that consume them, potentially leading to their death. In the present study, the abundance, diversity, biological functions (e.g., KEGG and CAZyme), and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) of bacteria and fungi in two bamboo species phyllosphere (Chimonobambusa szechuanensis, CS; Bashania fangiana, BF) in Daxiangling Nature Reserve (an important part of the Giant Panda National Park) were investigated respectively by amplicon sequencing of the whole 16S rRNA and ITS1-ITS2 genes on PacBio Sequel and whole-metagenome shotgun sequencing on Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform. The results suggested that there were respectively 18 bacterial and 34 fungi biomarkers between the phyllosphere of the two species of bamboo. Beta diversity of bacteria and fungi communities exited between the two bamboos according to the (un)weighted UniFrac distance matrix. Moreover, the functional analysis showed that the largest relative abundance was found in the genes related to metabolism and global and overview maps. Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) and glycosyl transferases (GTs) have a higher abundance in two bamboo phyllospheres. Co-occurrence network modeling suggested that bacteria and fungi communities in CS phyllosphere employed a much more complex metabolic network than that in BF, and the abundance of multidrug, tetracycline, and glycopeptide resistance genes was higher and closely correlated with other ARGs. This study references the basis for protecting bamboo resources foraged by wild giant pandas and predicts the risk of antibiotic resistance in bamboo phyllosphere bacterial and fungal microbiota in the Giant Panda National Park, China. | 2025 | 39168909 |
| 8015 | 19 | 0.9274 | Distribution, horizontal transfer and influencing factors of antibiotic resistance genes and antimicrobial mechanism of compost tea. Compost tea was alternatives of chemical pesticide for green agriculture, but there were no reports about antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in compost tea. This study investigated the effect of livestock manures, sewage sludge, their composting products and liquid fermentation on ARGs, mobile genetic elements (MGEs), metal resistance genes (MRGs) and antimicrobial properties of various compost tea. The results showed aerobic liquid fermentation reduced ARGs by 65.93 % and 45.20 % in the compost tea of chicken manure and sludge, enriched ARGs by 8.57 % and 37.41 % in the compost tea of pig manure and bovine manure, and increased MGEs and MRGs by 1.25 × 10(-5)-5.53 × 10(-3) and 2.03 × 10(-5)-2.03 × 10(-3) in the four compost tea. The correlation coefficient of tetracycline and sulfonamide resistance genes between compost product and compost tea were 0.98 and 0.91. aadA2-02, sul2 and tetX abundant in the compost tea were positively correlated with MGEs and MRGs. Furthermore, liquid fermentation enriched the potential host of tetracycline and vancomycin resistance genes. Tetracycline resistance genes occupied 62.7 % of total ARGs in the compost tea. Alcaligenes and Bacillus enriched by 0.78-39.31 % in the four compost tea, which metabolites had high antimicrobial activity. The potential host of ARGs accounted for 42.1 % bacteria abundance in the four compost tea. | 2022 | 35803190 |
