ABSTRACT
Livestock breeding intensively uses veterinary antibiotics in concentrated feeding operations to improve growth and control disease. Consequently, livestock and poultry manure is an important repository of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). To understanding the distribution of antibiotics and ARGs in manure and surrounding soils of cattle farms in Ningxia, cattle manure from five breeding periods (lactation, calving, growing, pre-fattening, and post-fattening periods) and comparative soil samples were collected from the largest beef-breeding area in Ningxia. The compositions of ARGs in the samples were analyzed by UPLC-MS/MS and HT-qPCR. The results showed thatâ Tetracycline, quinolone, and sulfonamide were the dominant antibiotics in cattle manure. The content of antibiotics in the manure varied greatly between different breeding periods. High amounts of antibiotics were detected during the pre-fattening and lactation periods, and the lowest amounts were detected during the calving period. â¡ Quinolone and tetracycline were the dominant antibiotics in the soils, and the detection rate and content of quinolone were highest. The cattle farms did not affect the distribution of antibiotics in the surrounding soils. The content of quinolone and tetracycline in the soils with cattle manure application were significantly higher than control and surrounding soils. ⢠We detected 79-142 ARGs in cattle manure, with aminoglycosides the most common form. The number and relative abundance of ARGs were highest during the growing period and lowest during the calving period. The dominant ARGs were tetQ, ermF, and tetO-01 across all the breeding periods. ⣠There were 35-79 ARGs in the tested soils, and multidrug and aminoglycoside ARGs were dominant. The cattle farms did not affect the number and relative abundance of ARGs in the surrounding soils; however, manure application significantly affected the number and relative abundance of ARGs. ⤠Sulfonamide and chloramphenicol ARGs are at risk of mobilization and horizontal transport. A correlation analysis showed that the relative abundances of aminoglycoside and tetracycline in cattle manure were significantly positively correlated with their contents. ⥠Aminoglycoside, sulfonamide, chloramphenicol, and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) in manure were significantly or extremely significantly positively correlated with aminoglycosides and sulfonamides in the soils, whereas macrolides were negatively correlated with vancomycin. These results provide baseline data to inform controls on the variety and dosages of feed and veterinary drugs in cattle farms and the application of organic fertilizers in agriculture.
