摘要: The discharge from pig farms presents significant challenges to the environment and human health, specifically regarding the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Fermentation bed culture has emerged as an increasingly popular and environmentally friendly pig farming model in China, as it minimizes the release of harmful substances into the environment. However, there remains a limited understanding of the occurrence and dynamics of microbiome and antibiotic resistome in fermentation bed culture. Herein, we collected fermentation bed materials (FBM) from four fermentation bed culture pig farms with varying service ages and investigated their bacterial communities, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), mobile genetic elements (MGEs), metal resis-tance genes (MRGs) and potential antibiotic-resistant bacterial hosts through metagenomics. Pseudomonadota, Actinomycetota, Bacteroidota and Bacillota were identified as the dominant phyla present in the FBM. In total, we detected 258 unique ARGs in the FBM samples, with 79 core ARGs shared by all FBM samples, accounting for 95 % of the total ARG abundance. Our results revealed significant variations in microbial communities and ARG profiles across varying service ages of FBM. Compared to long-term FBW, short-term FBM exhibited higher numbers and abundances of ARGs, MRGs and MGEs, along with higher levels of potential bacterial pathogens and high-risk ARGs. Further analysis of metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) indicated that the putative hosts of ARGs primarily belonged to Pseudomonadota, Actinomycetota and Bacillota. Alarmingly, among the 80 recovered ARG-carrying MAGs, 23 MAGs encoded multi-resistance, including clinically significant species that require urgent attention. Overall, this study provided valuable insights into the temporal patterns of antibiotic resistome and bacterial communities within FBM, enhancing our understanding of FBM in pig farming. The findings could potentially contribute to the development of effective strategies for evaluating and regulating fermentation bed culture practices in pig farming.
