RESUMO
The black soldier fly (BSF, Hermetia illucens) is a resource insect that can utilize livestock and poultry feces. However, BSFs may also increase the risk of transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (AGRs) that are widespread in livestock and poultry farm environments. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the biosecurity risks of different BSF treatments in the laying chicken food chain using the "chicken manure-BSF-laying hens" model. Our results indicated that different BSF treatments significantly affected antibiotic residue, ARGs, MGEs, bacterial antibiotic resistance, and bacterial microbial community composition in the food chain of laying hens fed BSFs. These risks can be effectively reduced through starvation treatment and high-temperature grinding treatment. Comprehensive risk assessment analysis revealed that starvation combined with high-temperature milling (Group H) had the greatest effect.

Microplastics (MPs), as a new type of pollutant, widely exist in livestock and poultry breeding and agricultural soils. However, research on MPs pollution on greenhouse gas emissions in combined planting and breeding systems is lacking, especially from the perspective of phage horizontal gene transfer. Therefore, this paper explores the effects of MPs on functional genes related to CH4 and N2O metabolism in bacteriophages during manure composting and its planting applications. The results of the study indicated that the addition of MPs had an impact on both the physicochemical properties and microbial community structure of manure during the composting process and on the compost-applied rhizosphere soil of lactuca (Lactuca sativa). Specifically, on day 7 of composting, mcrA/pmoA and (nirS+nirK) levels in bacteria in the MP group significantly increased. Additionally, it was observed that the MP group had higher average temperatures during the high-temperature period of composting, which led to a rapid reduction in phages. However, the phage levels quickly recovered during the cooling period. Furthermore, the addition of MPs to the rhizosphere soil resulted in higher levels of nirK. These changes may affect greenhouse gas emissions.

The different forms and properties of microplastics (MPs) have different effects on the elemental cycles in soil ecosystems, and this is further complicated when the soil contains antibiotics; meanwhile, oversized microplastic (OMP) in soil is always ignored in studies of environmental behavior. In the context of antibiotic action, the effects of OMP on soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling have rarely been explored. In this study, we created four types of oversized microplastic (thick fibers, thin fibers, large debris, and small debris) composite doxycycline (DOX) contamination layers (5-10 cm) in sandy loam, hoping to reveal the effects on soil C and N cycling and potential microbial mechanisms when exposed to the combination of manure-borne DOX and different types of OMP from the perspective of metagenomics in the longitudinal soil layer (0-30 cm). The results showed that all different forms of OMP, when combined with DOX, reduced the soil C content in each layer, but only reduced the soil N content in the upper layer of the OMP contamination layer. The microbial structure of the surface soil (0-10 cm) was more noteworthy than that of the deeper soil (10-30 cm). The genera Chryseolinea and Ohtaekwangia were key microbes involved in C and N cycling in the surface layer and regulated carbon fixation in photosynthetic organisms (K00134), carbon fixation pathways in prokaryotes (K00031), methane metabolism (K11212 and K14941), assimilatory nitrate reduction (K00367), and denitrification (K00376 and K04561). The present study is the first to reveal the potential microbial mechanism of C and N cycling under OMP combined with DOX in different layers, mainly the OMP contamination layer and its upper layer, and the OMP shape plays an important role in this process.

Black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae (BSFL) are common insects that are known for bioconversion of organic waste into a sustainable utilization resource. However, a strategy to increase antibiotic resistance gene (ARG) elimination in sustainable and economic ways through BSFL is lacking. In the present study, different larval densities were employed to assess the mcr-1 and tetX elimination abilities, and potential mechanisms were investigated. The application and economic value of each larval density were also analyzed. The results showed that the 100 larvae cultured in 100 g of manure group had the best density because the comprehensive disadvantage evaluation ratio was the lowest (14.97%, good bioconversion manure quality, low ARG deposition risk and reasonable larvae input cost). Further investigation showed that mcr-1 could be significantly decreased by BSFL bioconversion (4.42 ×107 copies/g reduced to 4.79 ×106-2.14 ×105 copies/g)(Pï¼0.05); however, mcr-1 was increasingly deposited in the larval gut with increasing larval density. The tetX abundance was stabilized by BSFL bioconversion, except that the abundance at the lowest larval density increased (1.22 ×1010 copies/g increase, 34-fold). Escherichia was the host of mcr-1 and tetX in all samples, especially in fresh manure; Alcaligenes was the host of tetX in bioconversion manure; and the abundance of Alcaligenes was highly correlated with the pH of bioconversion manure. The pH of bioconversion manure was extremely correlated with the density of larvae. Klebsiella and Providencia were both hosts of tetX in the BSF larval gut, and Providencia was also the host of mcr-1 in the BSF larval gut. The density of larvae influenced the bioconversion manure quality and caused the ARG host abundance to change to control the abundance of ARGs, suggesting that larval density adjustment was a useful strategy to manage the ARG risk during BSFL manure bioconversion.
