Background: Soil microbial fuel cells (MFCs) can remove antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) simultaneously, but their removal mechanism is unclear. In this study, metagenomic analysis was employed to reveal the functional genes involved in degradation, electron transfer and the nitrogen cycle in the soil MFC.
Results: The results showed that the soil MFC effectively removed tetracycline in the overlapping area of the cathode and anode, which was 64% higher than that of the control.

Plant-microbiota interactions have significant effects on plant growth, health, and productivity. Rhizosphere microorganisms are involved in processes that promote physiological responses to biotic and abiotic stresses in plants. In recent years, the interest in microorganisms to improve plant productivity has increased, mainly aiming to find promising strains to overcome the impact of climate change on crops.

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are capable of removing tetracycline in soils, in which the degradation efficiency of tetracycline is hindered by its strong adsorption capacity. Phosphate was chosen as a competitor for tetracycline adsorption to improve its removal rate in soil MFCs. The results showed that 42-50% of tetracycline was degraded within 7 days, which was 42-67% higher than open-circuit treatments.
