Potential role of organic matter in the transmission of antibiotic resistance genes in black soils

The degradation of black soil is a serious problem with the decrease in soil organic matter (SOM) content in northeast China, and animal manure as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is commonly amended into soil to sustain or increase the SOM content. However, the potential effect of...

Potential role of organic matter in the transmission of antibiotic resistance genes in black soils
