Selective pressure of antibiotics on ARGs and bacterial communities in manure-polluted freshwater-sediment microcosms

Selective pressure of antibiotics on ARGs and bacterial communities in manure-polluted freshwater-sediment microcosms

The aim of this study was to investigate selective pressure of antibiotics on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and bacterial communities in manure-polluted aquatic environment. Three treatment groups were set up in freshwater-sediment microcosms: tetracyclines group, sulfonamides group and fluoroq...
