Metagenomic Analysis Reveals the Transfer of Antibiotic Resistance from Manure-Fertilized Soil to Carrot Microbiome
2023-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Crops grown in manure-fertilized soil are more likely to be contaminated with antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) than when grown in unmanured soil, and therefore more likely to represent a route of ARG exposure to consumers. Existing studies scarcely focused on the residual ARGs on the carrot peel growing in the manured soil after the careful washing. In the present study, residual microbiome and resistome on the...
