Contributions of the microbial community and environmental variables to antibiotic resistance genes during co-composting with swine manure and cotton stalks.

TL;DR: The variations in ARGs during the composting process were mainly affected by the dynamics of potential host bacteria rather than integrons and the selective pressure due to bio-Cu and bio-Zn.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of inoculating with lignocellulose-degrading consortium on cellulose-degrading genes and fungal community during co-composting of spent mushroom substrate with swine manure

TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of inoculating a lignocellulose-degrading consortium at two levels comprising 0% and 10% on the fungal community and cellulose- degrading genes during SMS co-composting with swine manure showed that inoculation changed the co-occurrence patterns of theFungal communities and made the co,composted system more stable.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbial driven reduction of N2O and NH3 emissions during composting: Effects of bamboo charcoal and bamboo vinegar

TL;DR: The results showed that BC and BV improved the nitrogen conversion and compost quality, but the combined BC + BV treatment obtained the best improvements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of coal gasification slag on antibiotic resistance genes and the bacterial community during swine manure composting.

TL;DR: Redundancy analysis showed that bacterial community succession and MGE-mediated horizontal gene transfer played important roles in the variations in ARGs, and 10% CGS may be a suitable additive for reducing the risks of ARGs in compost products.
