Implication

Incubation experiment reveals how soil texture influences nitrogen cycling impacts of antibiotic residues in manure.

Key Points

This research examines how different soil textures affect the bioavailability of antibiotic residues in manure and their subsequent impact on nitrogen cycling communities.
Conducted a 46-day incubation experiment with three soil textures: sandy, sandy loam, and loam.
Used four treatments: control without manure, antibiotic-free manure, manure with oxytetracycline, and manure with sulfadiazine.
Quantified total and bioavailable antibiotic residues, soil N2O emissions, and nitrogen cycling functional genes.
Sulfadiazine bioavailability in sandy soil was approximately double that in loam soil.
High sulfadiazine bioavailability reduced ammonia-oxidizing bacteria abundance and inhibited nitrification in sandy soil.
In loam soil, low sulfadiazine bioavailability was linked to an increased abundance of complete ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (Comammox A).
Oxytetracycline increased Comammox A abundance in sandy loam and loam soils, showing no inhibitory effects.
