摘要： Composting alters manure-derived antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) to a certain extent, which is largely dependent upon the composting phase, manure type, microbial phylogeny, and physicochemical properties. However, little is known about how these determinants influence the fate and dynamics of ARGs as well as the mechanisms underlying the ecological process of ARGs during composting. Here, we investigated the temporal patterns of ARGs and their correlations with a series of physicochemical, genetic, and microbial properties during pilot-scale composting of chicken, maggot, bovine, and swine manure. We detected 237 ARGs, 71 of which were co-occurring across all four composting processes and accounted for >80% of the sum of resistome abundance. In support of this ARG co-occurrence, variance partition analyses demonstrated that the manure type explained less resistome variations (5.6%) than the composting phase (21.6%). During the phase-driven resistome dynamics, ARGs showed divergent variations in abundance, and certain beta-lactams and multidrug ARGs were consistently enriched across multiple manure composting processes. Correlation analyses all led to the conclusion that the divergent ARG variations during composting were attributable to the unequal effects of physicochemical properties, mobile elements, and succession of indigenous microbiota, whereas antibiotic residues' effects were marginal. Ultimately, this study determines the relative importance of various key determinants in the phase-driven divergence of ARGs during multiple manure composting processes and demonstrates a clear need to evaluate risks posed by enriched ARGs toward their receiving environments.
