摘要: Livestock farms are hotspots of antibiotic resistance due to the intensive use of antibiotics, in which the characteristics of air-borne and feces-borne antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and microbial communities are of great significance. This study delves into the distribution of ARGs and microbial communities across various livestock farms in China, and the correlation of microorganisms between livestock farms and other global environments was investigated. The concentrations of ARGs and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) in air samples were basically at the same level, but those in fecal samples collected from chicken farms were universally higher than those in pig and cattle farms. There was significant ability of ARGs to spread easily among different bacteria in all samples in livestock farms. Additionally, there may be more possible host bacteria of airborne ARGs in chicken farms. In the global-scale analysis of highly similar microbial communities, the database matching with the highest number of similarities to microbial communities collected from livestock farms is genes related to human sources (54.8%). This study advances our understanding of ARG dynamics in different livestock farms and contributes to the development of sustainable livestock management practices.
