ABSTRACT
The presence of antibiotics can affect the natural microbial community and exert selective pressure on the environment's microorganisms. This study focused on three types of urban landscape lakes in Xi'an that were closely related to human activities. By combining basic water quality indicators, antibiotic occurrence status, bacterial communities and their potential metabolic functions, Spearman correlation coefficient and redundancy analysis were used to explore the relationship between them, and further explore the impact mechanism of environmental factors and antibiotics on bacterial community structure. The results showed that ofloxacin, erythromycin, and roxithromycin were the main types of antibiotics in the three landscape lakes, with low ecological risks, and there was a clear clustering of antibiotic occurrence. Proteobacteria was the most abundant bacterial phylum, and each lake had its own unique dominant bacteria, which indicates that they are influenced by varying water sources, pollution, and other nearby environments. Statistical analysis showed that pH and nitrogen nutrients were the most critical environmental factors affecting bacterial communities (P<0.01), while tetracyclines and lincomycins were the antibiotics that had a significant impact on bacterial communities (P<0.05). Antibiotics mainly promote defense- and signal transduction-related functions, and inhibit the metabolic activity of bacterial communities. However, the impact of antibiotics on bacterial diversity, community structure, and potential metabolic function in the three urban lakes was less than that of environmental factors. These results help to clarify the mechanism and degree of impact of different interference factors (environmental factors, conventional pollutants, and antibiotics) on bacterial communities in the water environment and are important for the management of urban landscape lake water environments.
