The present study compared the effects of adding shrimp shell powder (SSP) at four levels comprising 0% (CK), 5% (L), 10% (M), and 15% (H) on the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and the bacterial community succession during swine manure composting. The relative abundances of 5/11 ARGs were reduced in CK, and 7/11 in H. Moreover, the removal rate was enhanced by adding SSP. Thus, H decreased the total abundance of ARGs by 32.68%, whereas CK increased it by 6.31%. Redundancy analysis indicated that mobile genetic elements (MGEs) (46.6%) and the bacterial community (31.1%) mainly explained the changes in ARGs. H enhanced the removal of MGEs, prolonged the thermophilic phase, stabilized copper and zinc, and retained nitrogen. LEfSe analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling indicated that the bacterial community changed in the composting process, and it was optimized by H. The abundances of the potential bacterial co-hosts (such as Lactobacillus, Corynebacterium_1, and Ornithinicoccus) of ARGs and MGEs were lower and the decomposition of organic matter was higher in H compared with CK. Thus, composting with 15% SSP can reduce the risk of ARGs and improve the practical value for agronomic application.

Cultivable microbial communities associated with plants inhabiting extreme environments have great potential in biotechnological applications. However, there is a lack of knowledge about these microorganisms from Bryophyllum pinnatum (which survives in severely barren soil) and their ability to promote plant growth. The present study focused on the isolation, identification, biochemical characterization, and potential applications of root endophytic bacteria and rhizosphere bacteria.

Bacterial biofilms are surface-attached communities consisting of non-replicating persister cells encased within an extracellular matrix of biomolecules. Unlike bacteria that have acquired resistance to antibiotics, persister cells enable biofilms to demonstrate innate tolerance toward all classes of conventional antibiotic therapies. It is estimated that 50-80% of bacterial infections are biofilm associated, which is considered the underlying cause of chronic and recurring infections.

As a diverse and complex food matrix, the animal food microbiota and repertoire of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes remain to be better understood. In this study, 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and shotgun metagenomics were applied to three types of animal food samples (cattle feed, dry dog food, and poultry feed). ZymoBIOMICS mock microbial community was used for workflow optimization including DNA extraction kits and bead-beating conditions.

Introduction: is a perennial medicinal plant. It's generally cultivated for three years, and should avoid long-term continuous cultivation. However, unreasonable crop rotation and extensive fertilization are common in cultivation, which leads to the imbalance of soil microflora structure, and the obstacle of continuous cropping are becoming increasingly serious.
