Summary: Soil contamination and pollution with antibiotics resistance bacteria (ARB) and antibiotics resistance genes (ARGs) pose new challenges for soil remediation and conservation. Fertilizer application in agriculture is a major source of ARB and ARGs contamination in soils. Bioelectrochemical remediation using microbial fuel cells and microbial electrolysis cells shows promise for the removal of ARB and ARGs in soil. However, this technology is still in its early stages and has limitations that need to be addressed.

Summary: The responses of anammox consortia to antibiotics SDZ and CTC were evaluated in terms of general performance, microbial activity, diversity and abundance of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The results showed that the consortia had great resistance to SDZ but were heavily affected by CTC. The presence of ARGs, particularly in Ca. Brocadia bacteria, played a significant role in the resistance mechanism.

Summary: The study evaluated the risks associated with the repeated application of stabilized sewage sludge and manure on agricultural soils. The results showed a significant increase in the relative abundance of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) sul1 and tetW, with sul1 increasing in all treatments regardless of the time. It is recommended to monitor sul1 in organically fertilized soils to prevent its spread and potential accumulation in crops.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of biochar particle size on the variation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in aerobic composting. The results showed a significant decrease in the total relative abundance of ARGs in all treatments. Sulfonamide antibiotic resistance genes were found to be the main contributor to the rebound of ARGs, while the addition of biochar hindered this rebound. The addition of biochar increased the competition among microbial communities, resulting in a decrease in the variety and abundance of ARGs hosts.

Summary: Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is a significant bacterial pathogen in poultry, and the emergence of multidrug-resistant strains has led to interest in phage therapy. Research showed that the lytic Escherichia phage vB_EcoM-P10 selected for resistance in APEC strains, leading to genetic changes such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms and gene losses, which resulted in decreased fitness in some mutant strains.

Summary: Bacteriophages are viruses that infect prokaryotic cells, mainly existing in shapes smaller than 100 nm. They are abundant in various environments and offer a natural and non-toxic approach to prevent infections caused by pathogenic and antimicrobial-resistant bacteria. Studies from the US and European countries have shown the potential efficacy of phage application against disease-causing bacteria.

Summary: The spatial arrangements and interactions between individuals in plant communities, influenced by factors such as species richness and evenness, can affect grassland biomass production and stability. This study found that communities with higher species richness and smaller conspecific patches had higher biomass production and temporal stability. The findings suggest that seeding grasslands with high species richness and small, single-species patches can promote grassland reconstruction and improve biomass production and stability.

Summary: This meta-analysis study suggests that straw-decomposing microbial inoculants (SDMI) can significantly increase the concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in soil, although the effects may vary under different conditions. The study also shows that mean annual precipitation (MAP) has correlations with the effects of SDMI-amended straw on soil nitrogen and phosphorus. Overall, this research highlights the measurable impact of SDMI-amended straw on soil major nutrients.

Summary: Inoculum size and heat perturbations have synergistic effects on predicting the invasion success of soil pathogens. Heating increases soil resource availability, but reduces resource differentiation between the pathogen and indigenous bacteria. The abundance of the pathogen increases with inoculum size in both heated and non-heated soils, with a greater effect in heated soils. Inoculum size and the increase in available carbon and nitrogen in the soil best predict invasion success.

Summary: Rapid urbanization has significant impacts on global biodiversity, but its effects on soil biodiversity and nematodes are not well understood. In this study, we examined soil nematodes in four land-use types across 12 cities in China. We found that urban parks and nearby forests had higher nematode richness than urban residential areas and surrounding farmlands. Nematode communities in parks and residential areas were more similar, while forests and farmlands had more heterogeneous communities. The variations in nematode communities were mainly due to taxa replacement, indicating spatial isolation of nematodes in cities. Urban parks served as hotspots for soil nematodes, while residential areas had the lowest number of specialists and smaller body sizes. Overall, our findings suggest that urbanization reduces nematode diversity, leading to a 30% loss in residential areas compared to forests, and homogenizes soil nematode communities.

Summary: Soil multifunctionality is influenced by biotic interactions and energy flux among multitrophic groups in the soil food web. Biochar can increase multifunctionality by promoting energy flow through the nematode food web, while synthetic fertilizer can have a non-uniform effect. Nitrogen limitation may offset the benefits of biochar and nutrient impoverishment can promote energy flow through the herbivore channel. Balancing biochar and synthetic fertilizer application is crucial for maintaining stable energetic structure and improving crop production and soil health in subtropical regions.

Summary: The soil microbial food web is crucial for soil health, nutrient cycling, and agricultural productivity. However, the effects of heavy metal contamination on the trophic-level interactions within this food web in agricultural soils, which are globally contaminated, have not been well-studied. This study examined the interactions among predators, preys, and competitors under different metal contamination levels and found that metal contamination altered the growth of different prey groups, resulting in changes in the diversity and abundance of consumers and their interactions. Lab experiments confirmed these findings, indicating the collapse of trophic-level interactions due to heavy metal contamination.

This study investigates the transfer and impacts of polystyrene microplastics in an estuarine food chain. The results show that microplastics can be transferred through the food chain, although the transfer rates are low.
