“…The 100 mg L −1 naphthalene and 10 mg L −1 phenanthrene increased the abundances of sulfonamide resistance gene (sulI) and aminoglycoside resistance gene (aadA2; Wang et al, 2017). This is possibly because PAH directly enriches ARGs and produces mutagenic effect by triggering stress/repair system or changing DNA composition (Busch et al, 2018). In addition, the abundances of ARGs such as macB, mexB and tolC in PAHscontaminated soil were about 15 times higher than those in lightly polluted soil.…”

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), environmental pollutants of emerging concern, have posed a potential threat to the public health. Soil is one of the huge reservoirs and propagation hotspot of ARGs. To alleviate the potential risk of ARGs, it is necessary to figure out the source and fate of ARGs in the soil. This paper mainly reviewed recent studies on the association of ARGs with the microbiome and the transmission mechanism of ARGs in soil. The compositions and abundance of ARGs can be changed by modulating microbiome, soil physicochemical properties, such as pH and moisture. The relationships of ARGs with antibiotics, heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and pesticides were discussed in this review. Among the various factors mentioned above, microbial community structure, mobile genetic elements, pH and heavy metals have a relatively more important impact on ARGs profiles. Moreover, human health could be impacted by soil ARGs through plants and animals. Understanding the dynamic changes of ARGs with influencing factors promotes us to develop strategies for mitigating the occurrence and dissemination of ARGs to reduce health risks.
