Abstract
The dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in aquaculture systems is a potential threat to environmental safety and human health. However, the spatiotemporal distribution pattern of ARGs and key factors associated with their dissemination in aquaculture sediments remain unclear. In this study, ARGs, mobile genetic elements, microbial community composition, heavy metal contents, and nutrient contents of samples collected from a whole culture cycle of fish in a representative aquaculture farm were characterized. The distribution patterns of nine subtypes of ARGs (tetW, tetM, tetA, ermC, ermB, sul1, sul2, floR, and qnrS) showed clear spatiotemporal differences. The absolute abundance of ARGs in aquaculture sediments was higher in winter and in rivers of the aquaculture farm. Proteobacteria was the dominant phylum in all sediment samples. The results of network and redundancy analyses confirmed that the Dechloromonas, Candidatus Accumulibacter, Smithella, Geobacter, and Anaeromyxobacter belonging to Proteobacteria were positively correlated with ARGs, suggesting that these microbial species are potential hosts of corresponding ARGs. Our study highlights that the microbial community is the determining factor for ARG dissemination. Strategies for inhibiting these potential hosts of ARGs should be developed based on controllable factors.
