ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 255:119188. [PMID: 38795950 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
The efficient use of livestock and poultry manure waste has become a global challenge, with microorganisms playing an important role. To investigate the impact of novel ammonifying microorganism cultures (NAMC) on microbial community dynamics and carbon and nitrogen metabolism, five treatments [5% (v/w) sterilized distilled water, Amm-1, Amm-2, Amm-3, and Amm-4] were applied to cow manure compost. Inoculation with NAMC improved the structure of bacterial and fungal communities, enriched the populations of the functional microorganisms, enhanced the role of specific microorganisms, and promoted the formation of tight modularity within the microbial network. Further functional predictions indicated a significant increase in both carbon metabolism (CMB) and nitrogen metabolism (NMB). During the thermophilic phase, inoculated NAMC treatments boosted carbon metabolism annotation by 10.55%-33.87% and nitrogen metabolism annotation by 26.69%-63.11. Structural equation modeling supported the NAMC-mediated enhancement of NMB and CMB. In conclusion, NAMC inoculation, particularly with Amm-4, enhanced the synergistic interaction between bacteria and fungi. This collaboration promoted enzymatic catabolic and synthetic processes, resultng in positive feedback loops with the endogenous microbial community. Understanding these mechanisms not only unravels how ammonifying microorganisms influence microbial communities but also paves the way for the development of the composting industry and global waste management practices.

Abstract
Bioaerosol emissions and their associated risks are attracting increasing attention. Bioaerosols are generated during the pretreatment, fermentation, and screening of mature compost when processing various types of solid waste at composting plants (e.g., municipal sludge and animal manure). In this review, we summarize research into bioaerosols at different types of composting plants by focusing on the methods used for sampling bioaerosols, stages when emissions potentially occur, major components of bioaerosols, survival and diffusion factors, and possible control strategies. The six-stage Andersen impactor is the main method used for sampling bioaerosols in composting plants. In addition, different composting management methods mainly affect bioaerosol emissions from composting plants. Studies of the components of bioaerosols produced by composting plants mainly focused on bacteria and fungi, whereas few considered others such as endotoxin. The survival and diffusion of bioaerosols are influenced by seasonal effects due to changes in environmental factors, such as temperature and relative humidity. Finally, three potential strategies have been proposed for controlling bioaerosols in composting plants. Improved policies are required for regulating bioaerosol emissions, as well as bioaerosol concentration diffusion models and measures to protect human health.

Abstract
Microbial inoculation plays a significant role in promoting the efficiency of biowaste conversion. This study investigates the function of Streptomyces-Bacillus Inoculants (SBI) on carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) conversion, and microbial dynamics, during cow manure (10% and 20% addition) and corn straw co-composting. Compared to inoculant-free controls, inoculant application accelerated the compost's thermophilic stage (8 vs 15 days), and significantly increased compost total N contents (+47%) and N-reductase activities (nitrate reductase: +60%; nitrite reductase: +219%). Both bacterial and fungal community succession were significantly affected by DOC, urease, and NH4+-N, while the fungal community was also significantly affected by cellulase. The contribution rate of Cupriavidus to the physicochemical factors of compost was as high as 83.40%, but by contrast there were no significantly different contributions (∼60%) among the top 20 fungal genera. Application of SBI induced significant correlations between bacteria, compost C/N ratio, and catalase enzymes, indicative of compost maturation. We recommend SBI as a promising bio-composting additive to accelerate C and N turnover and high-quality biowaste maturation. SBI boosts organic cycling by transforming biowastes into bio-fertilizers efficiently. This highlights the potential for SBI application to improve plant growth and soil quality in multiple contexts.

Abstract
Proper composting treatment of poultry manure waste is recommended before its use as a fertilizer. This involves many bioprocesses driven by microorganisms. Therefore, it is important to understand microbial mechanisms behind these bioprocesses in manure composting systems. Many efforts have been made to study the microbial community structure and diversity in these systems using high-throughput sequencing techniques. However, the dynamics of microbial interaction and functionality, especially for key microbial functional guilds, are not yet fully understood. To address these knowledge gaps, we collected samples from a 150-day industrial chicken manure composting system and performed the microbial network analysis based on the sequencing data. We found that the family Bacillaceae and genus Bacillus might play important roles in organic matter biodegradation at the mesophilic/thermophilic phases. Genera Virgibacillus, Gracilibacillus, Nocardiopsis, Novibacillus, and Bacillaceae_BM62 were identified as the key ones for humic acid synthesis at the mature phases. These findings improve our understanding about the fundamental mechanisms behind manure composting and can aid the development of microbial agents to promote manure composting performance.

Effects of Bacillus-based inoculum on odor emissions co-regulation, nutrient element transformations and microbial community tropological structures during chicken manure and sawdust composting. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 354:120328. [PMID: 38354615 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.120328] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024]
Abstract
This study aims to evaluate whether different doses of Bacillus-based inoculum inoculated in chicken manure and sawdust composting will provide distinct effects on the co-regulation of ammonia (NH3) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), nutrient conversions and microbial topological structures. Results indicate that the Bacillus-based inoculum inhibits NH3 emissions mainly by regulating bacterial communities, while promotes H2S emissions by regulating both bacterial and fungal communities. The inoculum only has a little effect on total organic carbon (TOC) and inhibits total sulfur (TS) and total phosphorus (TP) accumulations. Low dose inoculation inhibits total potassium (TK) accumulation, while high dose inoculation promotes TK accumulation and the opposite is true for total nitrogen (TN). The inoculation slightly affects the bacterial compositions, significantly alters the fungal compositions and increases the microbial cooperation, thus influencing the compost substances transformations. The microbial communities promote ammonium nitrogen (NH4+-N), TN, available phosphorus (AP), total potassium (TK) and TS, but inhibit nitrate nitrogen (NO3--N), TP and TK. Additionally, the bacterial communities promote, while the fungal communities inhibit the nitrite nitrogen (NO2--N) production. The core bacterial and fungal genera regulate NH3 and H2S emissions through the secretions of metabolic enzymes and the promoting or inhibiting effects on NH3 and H2S emissions are always opposite. Hence, Bacillus-based inoculum cannot regulate the NH3 and H2S emissions simultaneously.

Abstract
A simplified inoculum agent, only comprising Bacillus subtilis and Aspergillus niger, was utilized for industrial-scale cow-manure composting to investigate its impact on composting performance and microbiome. Inoculants elevated the average and peak temperatures by up to 7 and 10 °C, respectively, during the thermophilic stage, reduced organic matter content, and raised germination index. Inoculation also extended the period of composting above 50 °C from 12 to 26 days. Sequencing unveiled significant shifts in microbial diversity, composition, and function. Aspergillus thrived during the mesophilic phase, potentially initiating composting, whereas Bacillus, Lysinibacillus, and Clostridium were enriched during the thermophilic stage. Metagenomic sequencing revealed an increased abundance of carbohydrate-active enzymes and glycometabolism-related genes responsible for lignocellulose degradation and heat generation after inoculation. These enriched microbes and functional genes contributed to organic matter degradation and temperature maintenance during thermophilic stage, expediting composting. This suggests the effectiveness of this simplified inoculum in industrial-level cow-manure composting.

Abstract
Composting is a traditional method of treating organic waste. A growing number of studies have been focusing on accelerating the process to achieve "rapid composting." However, the specific definition and influencing factors of rapid composting remain unclear. Therefore, we aimed to gather more insight into the features of rapid composting by reviewing the literature concerning organic waste composting published in the Web of Science database in the past 5 years. We selected 1615 sample studies with "composting" as the subject word and analyzed the effective composting time stated in each study. We defined rapid composting within 15 days using the median test and quartile method. Based on this definition, we summarized the influencing factors of "rapid composting," namely materials, reactors, temperature, and microorganisms. Finally, we summarized two mechanisms related to humus formation during organic waste rapid composting: high temperature-promoting maturation and microbial driving mechanisms. This literature review compiled useful references to help promote the development of rapid composting technology and related equipment.

Abstract
Composting is an environmentally friendly method that facilitates the biodegradation of organic solid waste, ultimately transforming it into stable end-products suitable for various applications. The element iron (Fe) exhibits flexibility in form and valence. The typical Fe-related additives include zero-valent-iron, iron oxides, ferric and ferrous ion salts, which can be targeted to drive composting process through different mechanisms and are of keen interest to academics. Therefore, this review integrated relevant literature from recent years to provide more comprehensive overview about the influence and mechanisms of various Fe-related additives on composting process, including organic components conversion, humus formation and sequestration, changes in biological factors, stability and safety of composting end-products. Meanwhile, it was recommended that further research be conducted on the deep action mechanisms, biochemical pathways, budget balance analysis, products stability and application during organic solid waste composting with Fe-related additives. This review provided guidance for the subsequent targeted application of Fe-related additives in compost, thereby facilitating cost reduction and promoting circular economy objectives.

Abstract
Soil microbial communities are engineers of important biogeochemical processes and play a critical role in regulating the functions and stability of forest ecosystem. However, few studies have assessed microbial interactions during forest conversion, which is essential to the understanding of the structure and function of soil microbiome. Herein, we investigated the co-occurrence network pattern and putative functions of fungal and bacterial communities in forest-transforming areas (five sites that cover the typical forests) using high-throughput sequencing of the ITS genes and 16S rRNA. Our study showed that the bacterial network had higher average connectivity and more links than fungal network, which might indicate that the bacterial community had more complex internal interactions compared with fungal one. Alphaproteobacteria_unclassfied, Telmatobacter, 0319-6A21 and Latescibacteria_unclassfied were the keystone taxa in bacterial network. For the fungal community network, the keystone taxon was Ceratobasidium. A structural equation model indicated that the available potassium and total organic carbon were important soil environmental factors, which affected all microbial modules, including bacterial and fungi. Total nitrogen had significant effects on the bacterial module that contains a relatively rich group of nitrogen cycling functions, and pH influenced the bacterial module which have higher potential functions of carbon cycling. And, more fungal modules were directly affected by forest structure (S Tree) compared with bacterial ones. This study provides new insights into our understanding of the feedback of underground creatures to forest conversion and highlights the importance of microbial modules in the nutrient cycling process.

Abstract
New strategies to remove antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), one of the most pressing threats to public health, are urgently needed. This study showed that the fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium seeded to a composting reactor (CR) could remarkably reduce tetracycline-resistant genes (TRGs). The reduction efficiencies for the five main TRGs (i.e., tetW, tetO, tetM, tetPA, and tet(32)) increased by 8 to 100 folds compared with the control without P. chrysosporium, and this could be attributed to the decrease in the quantity of bacteria. Enumeration based on green fluorescence protein labeling further showed that P. chrysosporium became dominant in the CR. Meanwhile, the bacteria in the CR invaded the fungal cells via the cell wall defect of chlamydospore or active invasion. Most of the invasive bacteria trapped inside the fungus could not survive, resulting in bacterial death and the degradation of their TRGs by the fungal nucleases. As such, the predation of tetracycline-resistant bacteria by P. chrysosporium was mainly responsible for the enhanced removal of TRGs in the swine manure treatment. This study offers new insights into the microbial control of ARGs.

Effects of adding lignocellulose-degrading microbial agents and biochar on nitrogen metabolism and microbial community succession during pig manure composting. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 239:117400. [PMID: 37838195 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.117400] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Revised: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/16/2023]
Abstract
This study assessed the influence of the additions of lignocellulose-degrading microbial agents and biochar on nitrogen (N) metabolism and microbial community succession during pig manure composting. Four treatments were established: CK (without additives), M (lignocellulose-degrading microbial agents), BC (biochar), and MBC (lignocellulose-degrading microbial agents and biochar). The results revealed that all treatments with additives decreased N loss compared with CK. In particular, the concentrations of total N and NO3--N were the highest in M, which were 21.87% and 188.67% higher than CK, respectively. Meanwhile, the abundance of denitrifying bacteria Flavobacterium, Enterobacter, and Devosia reduced with additives. The roles of Anseongella (nitrifying bacterium) and Nitrosomonas (ammonia-oxidizing bacterium) in NO3--N transformation were enhanced in M and BC, respectively. N metabolism pathway prediction indicated that lignocellulose-degrading microbial agents addition could enhance N retention effectively mainly by inhibiting denitrification. The addition of biochar enhanced oxidation of NH4+-N to NO2--N and N fixation, as well as inhibited denitrification. These results revealed that the addition of lignocellulose-degrading microbial agents individually was more conducive to improve N retention in pig manure compost.

Biochar addition accelerates the humification process by affecting the microbial community during human excreta composting. ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY 2023:1-14.

Abstract
Biochar addition plays an important role in manure composting, but its driving mechanism on microbial succession and humification process of human excreta composting is still unclear. In the present study, the mechanism of biochar addition was explored by analysing the humification process and microbial succession pattern of human excreta aerobic composting without and with 10% biochar (HF and BHF). Results indicated that BHF improved composting temperature, advanced the thermophilic phase by 1 d, increased the germination index by 49.03%, promoted the growth rate of humic acid content by 17.46%, and raised the compost product with the ratio of humic acid to fulvic acid (HA/FA) by 16.19%. Biochar regulated the diversity of fungi and bacteria, increasing the relative abundance of Planifilum, Meyerozyma and Melanocarpus in the thermophilic phase, and Saccharomonospora, Flavobacterium, Thermomyces and Remersonia in the mature phase, which accelerates the humification. Bacterial communities' succession had an obvious correlation with the total carbon, total nitrogen, and temperature (P < 0.05), while the succession of fungal communities was influenced by the HA/FA and pH (P < 0.05). This study could provide a reference for the improvement of on-site human excreta harmless by extending the thermophilic phase, and facilitating the humification in human excreta compost with biochar addition.

Abstract
To investigate how sulfur addition affects humification and carbon loss during swine manure (SM) biostabilisation, various proportions of sulfur, i.e., 0 (CK), 0.2%-0.8% (S1-S4) were added to SM in a 70-day pilot-scale test. Compared to CK (16.07%), sulfur addition resulted in the mineralization of 17.05%-24.27% of the total organic carbon. Sulfur addition also reduced CH4 emissions, which were 3.7%-29.3% lower than that of CK. The total global warming potential values were in the range of 913.1-968.2 g CO2 eq kg-1 for all treatments. Although the sulfur-added treatments showed lower HA/FA ratios than CK after 70 days, no significant impact on the maturity of the final products was observed. Sulfur addition impacted the microbial community, CH4, CO2, N2O emissions, and affected the variation of temperature in biowaste biostabilization. These discoveries provided an important basis for understanding the function of sulfur in regulating the aerobic bio-decomposition of organic waste.

Biofilm-developed biomass residues as novel bulking agents and microbial carriers for synergistically enhanced bioevaporation: Degradation potential and contribution to metabolic heat. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 344:118570. [PMID: 37459810 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.118570] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023]
Abstract
Economical and easily prepared bulking agents and microbial carriers are essential in the practical application of bioevaporation process. Biofilm-developed biomass residues not only provide structural support and microbial sources but also may contribute metabolic heat to the bioevaporation process, achieving the enhanced water evaporation and synergistic treatment of biomass residues. In this study, biofilm was cultivated on the rice straw, wheat straw, sawdust, corncob, luffa cylindrica and palm first, then those biofilm-developed biomass residues were successfully used as the bulking agents and microbial carriers in food waste bioevaporation. The degradation potential (volatile solid degradation ratio) of those biomass residues was in the order of corncob (23.96%), wheat straw (21.12%), rice straw (14.57%), luffa cylindrica (11.02%), sawdust (-2.87%) and palm (-9.24%). It's primarily the degradation of the major components, cellulose and hemicellulose, in corncob and wheat straw governed the metabolic heat contribution (91.73 and 79.61%) to the bioevaporation process. While the high lignin content in sawdust (14.57%) and palm (28.62%) caused negligible degradation of cellulose and hemicellulose, hence made them only function as structural supporter and did not contribute any metabolic heat. Moreover, though the metabolic heat contribution of rice straw and luffa cylindrica reached 58.19 and 37.84%, their lowest lignocellulose content (62.99 and 65.95%) and their lower density, as well as the dominated Xanthomonas (bacteria) and Mycothermus (fungi) led to their rapid collapse during the repeated cycles of bioevaporation. The greatest abundance of thermophilic bacteria (22.3-88.0%) and thermophilic fungi (82.0-99.3%) was observed in the corncob pile. Furthermore, considering the Staphylococcus (pathogenic bacteria) and Candida (animal pathogen) was effectively inhibited, the biofilm-developed corncob was the most favorable bulking agents and microbial carrier for the synergistic bioevaporation of highly concentrated organic wastewater and biomass residues.

Abstract
This study aims to examine the effects of biochar on fungal dynamics during food waste composting. The different dosage of wheat straw biochar from 0 to 15% (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, and 15%) were used as an additive to composting and examined for 42 days. The results showed that Ascomycota (94.64%) and Basidiomycota (5.36%) were the most dominant phyla. The most common fungal genera were Kluyveromyces (3.76%), Candida (5.34%), Trichoderma (2.30%), Fusarium (0.46%), Mycothermus-thermophilus (5.67%), Trametes (0.46%), and Trichosporon (3.38%). The average number of operational taxonomic units were 469, with the greatest abundance seen in the 7.5% and 10% treatments. Redundancy analysis revealed that different concentrations of biochar applied treatments have significantly distinct fungal communities. Additionally, correlation analyses of fungal interactions with environmental elements, performed through a heatmap, also indicate a distinct difference among the treatments. The study clearly demonstrates that 15% of biochar has a positive impact on fungal diversity and improves the food waste composting.

Abstract
In this study, explored the influence of different proportion (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10%) peach shell biochar (PSB) with microbial agents (EM) on the carbon transformation, humification process and fungal community dynamics during sheep manure (SM) composting. And no additives were used as control. The results manifested that the CO2 and CH4 emissions were effectively reduced 8.23%∼13.10% and 17.92%∼33.71%. The degradation rate of fulvic acid increased by 17.12%∼23.08% and the humic acid contents were enhanced by 27.27%∼33.97% so that accelerated the composting. Besides, the dominant fungal phylum was Ascomycota (31.43%∼52.54%), Basidiomycota (3.12%∼13.85%), Mucoromycota (0.40%∼7.61%) and Mortierellomycota (0.97%∼2.39%). Pearson correlation analysis and network indicated that there were different correlations between physicochemical indexes and fungal community under different additive concentrations. In brief, the two modifiers application promoted the SM degradation and affected the fungal community structure.

Abstract
In recent years, the optimization of straw-rotting formulations for cultivating edible mushrooms and the management of the resulting spent mushroom substrate have emerged as new challenges. This study aimed to investigate the composting of spent mushroom substrate produced from mushroom cultivation with various straw additions, under conditions where chicken manure was also used. Parameters measured during the composting process included temperature, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), germination index (GI), moisture, and total nitrogen content. Additionally, changes in nutrient content within the compost piles before and after composting were determined, and the variations in bacterial and fungal communities across different treatments before and after composting were analyzed using 16S rRNA and ITS sequencing. The results indicated that the spent mushroom substrate produced by adding 20% straw during mushroom cultivation was more suitable for composting treatment. The findings suggest that incorporating an appropriate amount of straw in mushroom cultivation can facilitate subsequent composting of spent mushroom substrate, providing an effective strategy for both environmental protection and cost reduction.

Abstract
Bacteria are key drivers in regulating ecosystem functions, and understanding the diversity and dynamic changes in bacteria in composting is very important for optimizing compost. This study investigated the structure, composition, and function of bacterial communities in alkaline pig manure compost using Miseq sequencing, PICRUSt2. The ACE and Chao1 indices of the bacterial communities in various phases were significantly different. Bacterial communities of alkaline pig compost were different from neutral and acidic swine manure compost, and there were 438 genera of common bacteria in various stages. The main bacterium was the phylum Firmicutes. There were six genera, including Romboutsia, Clostridium, Terrisporobacter, norank_f_Marinococcaceae, Saccharomonospora, and unclassified_f_Bacillaceae, that were significantly correlated (p < 0.05), or even extremely significantly correlated (p < 0.001), with the physicochemical properties. TOC, moisture, C/N, and Tem were the key factors that caused changes in bacterial communities in composting. PICRUSt2 analysis showed that there were seven functional groups: metabolism (45.02-48.07%), environmental information processing (15.25-16.00%), genetic information processing (16.97-20.02%), cellular processes (3.63-4.37%), human diseases (0.71-0.82%), organismal systems (0.66-0.77%), and unclassified (13.93-14.36%). This study will provide a reference for improving bacteria growth and reproduction conditions in pig manure composting, optimizing the process, and improving the efficiency of composting.

[PMID: 37674065 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-29684-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 09/08/2023]
Abstract
The relationships among the relative abundance of guild-plant pathogenic fungi, compost maturation index, and microbial community variation during vegetable waste composting, which are influenced by the C/N ratio, remain poorly understood. To address this, fungal communities were analyzed in composting treatments with C/N ratios of approximately 15 (CN15) and 25 (CN25), using vegetable waste as the primary raw material. The CN15 treatment showed greater microbial community variation and a better overall compost maturation index value than the CN25 treatment. However, the CN25 treatment had a greater decline in plant-pathogenic fungi than the CN15 treatment. Notably, the relative abundance of guild-plant pathogenic fungi was significantly negatively related to the compost maturity index in the CN25 treatment, while no significant relationship was observed in the CN15 treatment. This study suggests that the moderately delayed maturation of composting is beneficial for reducing guild-plant pathogenic fungi in vegetable waste.

Abstract
Yeast complexes in the composting process of cow dung prepared to fertilize the soil for growing vegetables and fruits were studied. The average abundance of yeasts changed during the four temperature stages of the composting process. The highest abundance of yeasts, 1.38 × 104 cfu/g, was observed in the second stage of heating from 20 to 40 °C; the lowest was studied in the stage with the highest temperature (65 °C), 1.68 × 103 cfu/g. A total of 19 yeast species were observed and identified: 11 ascomycetes and 8 basidiomycetes, belonging to five subphyla of Fungi: Saccharomycotina (10), Pezizomycotina (1), Agaricomycotina (5), Pucciniomycotina (2), and Ustilaginomycotina (1). The greatest diversity of yeasts was found in the initial (20 °C) and second (heating up to 40 °C) temperature stages of composting (Aureobasidium pullulans (yeast-like fungus), Candida parapsilosis, Candida saitoana, Candida santamariae, Candida tropicalis, Curvibasidium cygneicollum, Cutaneotrichosporon moniliforme, Debaryomyces fabryi, Debaryomyces hansenii, Filobasidium magnum, Kazachstania sp., Moesziomyces bullatus, Naganishia globosa, Papiliotrema flavescens, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Scheffersomyces insectosa, Torulaspora delbrueckii, Vanrija musci), and the lowest in the stage of maximum heating (65 °C) (C. parapsilosis, C. tropicalis, Cyberlindnera jadinii).The opportunistic yeasts C. parapsilosis and C. tropicalis were obtained not only in the initial, second and third temperature stages of the composting process, but also in mature compost in the final stage prepared for soil application. This study shows that the cow dung, used in the farm studied did not meet the microbiological safety criteria. The reduction of opportunistic yeast species was not achieved with the composting method used. The likelihood of these species entering agricultural products via compost and soil and developing as endophytes in the internal tissues of fruits is very high. Since some strains of opportunistic Candida species from cow dung exhibited virulent characteristics (they produced hydrolytic enzymes and were resistant to antifungal compounds), additional phenotypic and genetic studies of the compost strains and their comparison with clinical isolates should be pursued.

Abstract
Inoculation can effectively improve the recycling level of organic waste in composting process. However, the role of inocula in the humification process has been rarely studied. Therefore, we constructed a simulated food waste composting system by adding commercial microbial agents to explore the function of inocula. The results showed that adding microbial agents extended the high temperature maintenance time by 33% and increased the humic acid content by 42%. Inoculation significantly improved the degree of directional humification (HA/TOC = 0.46, p < 0.001). The proportion of positive cohesion in the microbial community underwent an overall increase. The strength of bacterial/fungal community interaction increased by 1.27-fold after inoculation. Furthermore, the inoculum stimulated the potential functional microbes (Thermobifida and Acremonium) which were highly related to the formation of humic acid and the degradation of organic matter. This study showed that additional microbial agents could strengthen microbial interaction to raise the humic acid content, thus opening the door for the development of targeted biotransformation inocula in the future.

High oil content inhibits humification in food waste composting by affecting microbial community succession and organic matter degradation. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 376:128832.

Abstract
Composting is an effective technology to realize resource utilization of food waste in rural China. However, high oil content in food waste limits composting humification. This study investigated the effects of blended plant oil addition at different proportions (0, 10, 20, and 30%) on the humification of food waste composting. Oil addition at 10%-20% enhanced lignocellulose degradation by 16.6%-20.8% and promoted humus formation. In contrast, the high proportion of oil (30%) decreased the pH, increased the electrical conductivity, and reduced the seed germination index to 64.9%. High-throughput sequencing showed that high oil inhibited the growth and reproduction of bacteria (Bacillus, Fodinicurvataceae, and Methylococcaceae) and fungi (Aspergillus), attenuated their interaction, thus, reducing the conversion of organic matter, such as lignocellulose, fat, and total sugar, to humus, consequently leading to negative impacts on composting humification. The results can guide composting parameter optimization and improve effective management of rural food waste.

Abstract
Phthalates are common pollutants in agriculture. Here, the influence of di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) on multifunctionality of composting was assessed. Results indicated that DBP stress (100 mg/kg) hampered multifunctionality from the thermophilic phase onwards and resulted in a 6.5 % reduction of all assessed functions. DBP stress also significantly reduced microbial biomass (P < 0.05), altered microbial composition (P < 0.05), and decreased network complexity (P < 0.01). Multifunctionality was found to be strongly correlated (P < 0.001) with microbial biomass, diversity, and network complexity. In addition, keystone taxa responsive to DBP were identified as Streptomyces, Thermoactinomyces, Mycothermus, and Lutispora. These taxa were significantly (P < 0.001) affected by DBP stress, and a correlation between them and multifunctionality was shown. This study contributes to a better understanding of the negative implications of phthalates during composting processes, which is of great significance to the development of new treatment strategies for agricultural waste.

Abstract
The safe utilization and risk assessment of produced water (PW) from oil and gas fields for desert irrigation have received increasing attention in recent years. In this context, this study aimed to analyze structural changes in soil bacterial community, and assess the environmental impact of PW discharge and irrigation over time. High-throughput sequencing technology was employed to examine the structure of the soil bacterial community in the constructed wetland and its surrounding desert vegetation irrigation region where PW was released for a considerable amount of time (30 years). The results revealed that long-term discharge of PW and irrigation significantly reduced the abundance of the soil bacterial community but did not significantly alter the richness and diversity of the soil bacterial community. Proteobacteria was the dominant bacterial phyla in soil, but in irrigated and drained areas, the dominant bacterial phyla changed from Alphaproteobacteria to Gammaproteobacteria, the Firmicutes abundance was significantly reduced.

Abstract
There is limited information on the phosphorus availability under copper and tetracycline-amended composting: Insights into microbial communities and genes. Thus, this work investigated the phosphorus redistribution and transformation, illustrated the variation in microbial communities and genes, and ascertained the multiple action-patterns among which within copper and tetracycline-amended composting. Phosphorus bioavailability reduced by 8.96 % ∼ 13.10 % due to the conservation of Ex-P to Ca-P. Copper and tetracycline showed a significant effect on fungal succession, but not to bacteria, as well as inhibited the phosphorus functional genes in fungal communities, while accelerated it in bacterial communities. Under the copper/tetracycline-stressed conditions, bacterial Firmicutes could promote the mineralization of organic phosphorus, and bacterial Proteobacteria might facilitate the dissolution of inorganic phosphorus. These findings could provide theoretical guidance for the further research on phosphorus bioavailability ascribed to microbial communities and genes.

Abstract
Carbon and nitrogen evolution and bacteria and fungi succession in two functional membrane-covered aerobic composting (FMCAC) systems and a conventional aerobic composting system were investigated. The micro-positive pressure in each FMCAC system altered the composting microenvironment, significantly increased the oxygen uptake rates of microbes (p < 0.05), and increased the abundance of cellulose- and hemicellulose-degrading microorganisms. Bacteria and fungi together influenced the conversion between carbon and nitrogen forms. FMCAC made the systems less anaerobic and decreased CH4 production and emissions by 22.16 %-23.37 % and N2O production and emissions by 41.34 %-45.37 % but increased organic matter degradation and NH3 production and emissions by 16.91 %-90.13 %. FMCAC decreased carbon losses, nitrogen losses, and the global warming potential by 7.97 %-11.24 %, 15.43 %-34.00 %, and 39.45 %-42.16 %, respectively. The functional membrane properties (pore size distribution and air permeability) affected fermentation process and gaseous emissions. A comprehensive assessment indicated that FMCAC has excellent prospects for application.

Abstract
Microbes often form complex ecological networks in various habitats. Co-occurrence network analysis allows exploring the complex community interactions beyond the community diversities. This study explores the interspecific relationships within and between bacterial and fungal communities during composting of cow manure using co-occurrence network analysis. Furthermore, the keystone taxa that potentially exert a considerable impact on the microbiome were revealed by network analysis. The networks in the present study harbored more positive links. Specifically, the interactions/coupling within bacterial communities was tighter and the response to changes in external environmental conditions was more quickly during the composting process, while the fungal network had a better buffer capacity for changes in external environmental conditions. Interestingly, this result was authenticated in the bacterial-fungal (BF) network and the Mantel test of major modules and environmental variables. More than that, the Zi-Pi plot revealed that the keystone taxa including "module hubs" and "connectors" were all detected in these networks, which could prevent the dissociation of modules and networks.

Humification process enhancement through relative abundance promotion of Talaromyces and Coprinopsis by inoculated Phanerochaete chrysosporium during the secondary fermentation of composting. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:9060-9065.

Abstract
To explore the mechanism of Phanerochaete chrysosporium (P. chrysosporium) inoculation driving the humification process of maize straw composting, the treatments without P. chrysosporium inoculation (T1) and that with P. chrysosporium inoculation (T2) were carried out separately during the secondary fermentation of the co-composting of maize straw and rapeseed cake. The key microorganisms were determined by evaluating the succession of the fungal community and its relationship with humification process parameters. The results showed that P. chrysosporium inoculation (T2) reduced fungal diversity but increased the relative abundance of Coprinopsis and Talaromyces. At the end of the composting (day 36), the relative abundance of Talaromyces and Coprinopsis in T2 increased by 1223.7% and 30.2%, respectively, compared with T1. Combined CCA and SEMs analyses demonstrated the microbially driven mechanisms that enhance the humification process of composting, that is, P. chrysosporium inoculation promoted lignin continuous degradation by promoting the relative abundance of Talaromyces and Coprinopsis during the secondary fermentation of composting; meanwhile, P. Chrysosporium inoculation further intensified the biological process of humification in composting.

Abstract
Introduction The rapid development of the farming industry has increased the amount of manure produced by livestock and poultry, causing increasingly prominent environmental pollution problems. In recent years, due to the increase in conventional bedding material costs, an increasing number of farmers choose to use harmless recycled manure as bedding. Manure bedding treatment of farms can not only solve the problem of manure pollution, but also resource utilization of manure and cost savings. Methods This study compared the effects of five microbial agents (Microbial agents A, B, C, E, F) on buffalo manure bedding treatment by testing the temperature, moisture content, pH, microbial bacteria distribution of buffalo manure ectopic fermentation, and screened the lowest cost and most effective agent. The changes of microbial bacteria distribution in different periods of bedding treatment were also detected. Results Agent A was eliminated because of poor fermentation effect and low fermentation temperature, which could not achieve the effect of harmless treatment. The other four agents of bacteria achieved a harmless effect, but the bedding treatment effect of agent F was significantly better than agent E, B, and C. In terms of the cost of agents: the cost of agent F required for fermenting 100m³ buffalo manure was the lowest, 1000yuan, followed by E (1200yuan), C (1750yuan), and B (1980yuan). In the process of ectopic fermentation bedding treatment of buffalo manure, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Chloroflexi were the major bacteria used. The process was divided into three periods; the heating period - high temperature period - cooling period, the high temperature period could reach more than 75°C, and a large number of pathogenic bacteria and harmful bacteria, and other miscellaneous bacteria in the pile were degraded, their species diversity was reduced, and the structure of bacterial flora had significant differences in different treatment periods. In conclusion, this study has provided a guide for the resource utilization of manure in cattle farms and the reduction of manure pollution to the environment.

Changes of bacterial and fungal communities and relationship between keystone taxon and physicochemical factors during dairy manure ectopic fermentation. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0276920. [PMID: 36534655 PMCID: PMC9762577 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0276920] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to interactions with variety of environmental and physicochemical factors, the composition and diversity of bacteria and fungi in manure ectopic fermentation are constantly changing. The purpose of this study was to investigated bacterial and fungal changes in dairy manure ectopic fermentation, as well as the relationships between keystone species and physicochemical characteristics. METHODS Ectopic fermentation was carried out for 93 days using mattress materials, which was combined with rice husk and rice chaff (6:4, v/v), and dairy waste mixed with manure and sewage. Physicochemical characteristics (moisture content, pH, NH4+-N (NN), total organic carbon (TO), total nitrogen (TN) and the C/N ratio) of ectopic fermentation samples were measured, as well as enzymatic activity (cellulose, urease, dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase). Furthermore, the bacterial and fungal communities were studied using 16S rRNA and 18S rRNA gene sequencing, as well as network properties and keystone species were analyzed. RESULTS During the ectopic fermentation, the main pathogenic bacteria reduced while fecal coliform increased. The C/N ratio gradually decreased, whereas cellulase and dehydrogenase remained at lower levels beyond day 65, indicating fermentation maturity and stability. During fermentation, the dominant phyla were Chloroflexi, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria of bacteria, and Ascomycota of fungi, while bacterial and fungal community diversity changed dramatically and inversely. The association between physicochemical characteristics and community keystone taxon was examined, and C/N ratio was negative associated to keystone genus. CONCLUSION These data indicated that microbial composition and diversity interacted with fermentation environment and parameters, while regulation of keystone species management of physicochemical factors might lead to improved maturation rate and quality during dairy manure ectopic fermentation. These findings provide a reference to enhance the quality and efficiency of waste management on dairy farm.

Abstract
There are a considerable number of discussions aimed at analyzing microbial communities and their functions during the composting process. However, microbial succession under copper (Cu) and tetracycline (TCH)-stressed conditions has received less attention. Thus, this work analyzed the bacterial and fungal structures with high-throughput sequencing in Cu/TCH-amended composting (Cu: 0, 100, and 500 mg/kg; TCH: 0, 50, and 300 mg/kg), and the dominating controls on microbial diversity were identified using redundancy analysis (RDA) and structural equation models (SEMs). Low-concentration Cu increased the peak temperature (57°C) at the thermophilic phase. Composting phase-derived changes in bacterial and fungal communities were significant, while Cu and TCH showed a remarkable influence on fungi but not on bacteria. Cu and TCH inhibited Firmicutes' activity while promoting Actinobacteriota growth. Low-concentration Cu and TCH had a negative effect on Basidiomycota in the thermophilic phase and a positive influence on Chytridiomycota in the mature phase. TOC and TN were primary controls on the changes in microbial communities. NH4+-N and NO3--N were more beneficial to fungi with a contribution proportion of 42.13 and 16.85%, respectively. These findings could provide theoretical guidance for the directional research on microbial inoculants.

Abstract
The objective of this work was to evaluate the fungal community assembly and function during food waste composting with Aneurinibacillus sp. LD3 (LD3) inoculant. Inoculation reduced the content of total organic carbon, moisture content, nitrate nitrogen, and nitrite nitrogen. The LD3 inoculant was able to drive the changes in the assembly of the fungal community. In particular, inoculation with LD3 not only increased the relative abundance of Ascomycota and Trichocomaceae_unclassified for lignocellulose degradation at the mesophilic and cooling stages but also reduced the relative abundances of the opportunistic human pathogen Candida. Saprotroph was the predominant fungal trophic mode in composting, and inoculation with LD3 has a better inactivation effect on animal and plant pathogenic fungi during composting. Furthermore, the variation of the fungal community after inoculation with LD3 was the largest explained by temperature (30.64%). These results implied that LD3 significantly regulated fungal composition and function of food waste composting.

Membrane-covered composting significantly decreases methane emissions and microbial pathogens: Insight into the succession of bacterial and fungal communities. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 845:157343.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of semipermeable membrane-covered on methane emissions and potential pathogens during industrial-scale composting of the solid fraction of dairy manure were investigated. The results showed that the oxygen concentration in the membrane-covered group (CT) was maintained above 10 %, and the cumulative methane emission in CT was >99 % lower than that in the control group (CK). Microbial analysis showed that the bacterial genus Thermus and the fungal genus Mycothermus were dominant in CT, and the richness and diversity of the bacterial community were greater than those of the fungal community. At the end of the composting, the relative abundance of potential bacterial pathogens in CT was 32.59 % lower than that in CK, and the relative abundance of potential fungal pathogens in each group was <2 %. Structural equation models revealed that oxygen concentration was a major factor influencing the bacterial diversity in CT, and the increase of oxygen concentration could limit methane emissions by inhibiting the growth of anaerobic bacteria. Therefore, membrane-covered composting could effectively improve compost safety and reduce methane emissions by regulating microbial community structure.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of micro-aerobic conditions on fungal community succession and dissolved organic matter transformation during dairy manure membrane-covered composting. The results showed that lignocellulose degradation in the micro-aerobic composting group (AC: oxygen concentration < 5 %) was slower than that in the static composting group (SC: oxygen concentration < 1 %), but the dissolved organic carbon in AC was greatly increased. The degree of aromatic polymerization was higher in AC than in SC. But the carboxyl carbon and alcohol/ether biodegradations were faster in SC than in AC, which promoted carbon dioxide and methane emissions, respectively. The relative abundances of pathogenic and dung saprotrophic fungi in AC were 44.6 % and 10.59 % lower than those in SC on day 30, respectively. Moreover, the relative abundance of soil saprotrophs increased by 5.18 % after micro-aerobic composting. Therefore, micro-aerobic conditions improved the quality of compost products by influencing fungal community evolution and dissolved organic matter transformation.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the dynamic of microbial community and metabolic function in food waste composting amended with traditional Chinese medicine residues (TCMRs). Results suggested that TCMRs addition at up to 10% leads to a higher peak temperature (60.5 °C), germination index (GI) value (119.26%), and a greater reduction in total organic carbon (TOC) content (8.08%). 10% TCMRs significantly induced the fluctuation of bacterial community composition, as well as the fungal community in the thermophilic phase. The addition of 10% TCMRs enhanced the abundance of bacterial genera such as Acetobacter, Bacillus, and Brevundimonas, as well as fungal genera such as Chaetomium, Thermascus, and Coprinopsis, which accelerated lignocellulose degradation and humification degree. Conversely, the growth of Lactobacillus and Pseudomonas was inhibited by 10% TCMRs to weaken the acidic environment and reduce nitrogen loss. Metabolic function analysis revealed that 10% TCMRs promoted the metabolism of carbohydrate and amino acid, especially citrate cycle, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, and cysteine and methionine metabolism. Redundancy analysis showed that the carbon to nitrogen (C/N) ratio was the most significant environmental factor influencing the dynamic of bacterial and fungal communities.

Abstract
Airborne fungi can pose serious health concerns in humans; however, the area-specific abundance and composition of airborne fungal microbiota discharged from composting facilities remain unclear. In the present study, we collected air samples from composting, packaging, office, and downwind areas of four commercial composting facilities. The characteristics of airborne fungi, including pathogen/allergen-containing genera, and their corresponding human exposure in different areas of composting facilities were analyzed using high-throughput sequencing and ddPCR. High fungal concentrations and richness were detected in the air of the packaging area. In all four areas, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, and Mucoromycota were observed to be the primary fungal phyla, with Cladosporium, Alternaria, and Aspergillus as the consistently dominant fungal genera. A large number of endemic airborne fungi were found in the composting and packaging areas, which also shared the most common airborne fungi as well as pathogen/allergen-containing genera. The packaging area contributed substantially to airborne fungi in the office and downwind areas. Area-specific human exposure to broad airborne fungal compositions was revealed, especially regarding the pathogen/allergen-containing genera. Current results provide valuable data for a comprehensive understanding of area-specific airborne fungi in composting facilities and highlight the importance of assessing the inhaled exposure to airborne fungi in evaluating their following health risks.

Abstract
The effects of magnesite (MS) on fungi communities and the core fungi complementarity during pig manure (PM) composting were explored. Different dosage of MS [0% (T1), 2.5% (T2), 5% (T3), 7.5% (T4) and 10% (T5)] as amendments mixed with PM for 42 days composting. The results showed the dominant of phyla were Ascomycota (78.87%), Neocallimastigomycota (41.40%), Basidiomycota (30.81%) and Aphelidiomycota (29.44%). From day 7 to 42, the abundance of Ascomycota and Aphelidiomycota were increased from 7.75% to 42.41% to 57.27%-78.87% and 0-0.70% to 11.73%-29.44% among all treatments. Nevertheless, the phyla abundance of Neocallimastigomycota and Basidiomycota decreased from day 7 to 42. The co-occurrence network indicated that the high additive amendment could enhance the core fungi complementarity effects capacity. The 10% MS addition was a promisable candidate to optimum fungal communities, and causing a better compost quality. This study illustrated the potential and fungi communities changing of MS as additives in composting.

Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0184521. [PMID: 35703536 PMCID: PMC9430276 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.01845-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is a leading foodborne pathogen that can contaminate fresh produce in farm environment, resulting in deadly outbreaks. Composts contain a diversity of microorganisms, and some of them may be compost-adapted competitive exclusion microorganisms against L. monocytogenes. To understand interactions between compost microflora and the pathogen, both dairy- and poultry-wastes based composts (n = 12) were inoculated with L. monocytogenes, and then analyzed by next-generation sequencing approaches along with culturing methods. DNA extraction and enumeration of L. monocytogenes were performed at 0 and 72 h post-incubation at room temperature. The major bacterial phyla were identified as Firmicutes (23%), Proteobacteria (23%), Actinobacteria (19%), Chloroflexi (13%), Bacteroidetes (12%), Gemmatimonadetes (2%), and Acidobacteria (2%). The top three indicator genera enriched in different compost types were identified by LEfSe with LDA score > 2. The interactions between L. monocytogenes and indigenous microflora were limited as no significant changes in the dominant microbial members in compost ecosystem, but some discriminatory species such as Bacillus, Geobacillus, and Brevibacterium were identified by Random Forest analysis. Besides, changes in metabolic pathways and the increased abundance of bacteriocins category in the compost samples containing L. monocytogenes after 72 h postinoculation were revealed by metatranscriptomic sequencing. Taken together, the compost-related factors such as compost types, composting stages, and the collection farms are major drivers that affect compost microbial compositions, and the analysis of compost metagenome implied that interactions between L. monocytogenes and compost microflora may include competition for nutrients and the presence of antimicrobials. IMPORTANCE Listeria monocytogenes has been recognized as the etiological agent causing foodborne disease outbreaks, with fresh produce as vulnerable for contamination at even preharvest stage. Owing to the richness in microbial community, compost may mediate suppression of pathogens. In this study, the impact of compost-related factors and L. monocytogenes intrusion on dynamic changes in compost microbiome was investigated by next generation sequencing techniques. The compost-related factors such as compost types, composting stages, and the collection farms are major drivers that affect compost microbiome. The interactions between L. monocytogenes and compost microflora may include the competition for nutrients and the presence of antimicrobials produced by native compost microorganisms as potential competitive exclusion microorganisms. Findings from this study are important for the composting industry to understand the composition and functionality of microbial community in their products and help developing organic fertilizers fortified with anti-L. monocytogenes competitive exclusion microorganisms.

Abstract
This study aimed to clarify the effect of the integrated addition of different proportions of biochar (0 and 5%) and MnSO4 (0, 0.25%, and 0.50%) to pig manure compost. The results indicated the integrated use of biochar (BC) and Mn2+ advanced the compost humification. In particular, the integrated use of 0.50% Mn2+ and 5% BC showed higher total organic carbon degradation (20.67%) and humic acid production (81.26 g kg-1) than other treatments. Microbial community analysis showed the integrated use of BC and Mn2+ regulated the diversity and community structure of organic matter-mineralizing microbes by maintaining the relative abundance of bacteria Firmicutes (54.62%) and Proteobacteria (38.05%) at high levels during the thermophilic period and boosting those of the fungi of Ascomycota (58.91%) and Actinobacteria (15.60%) during the maturity period of composting. This study illustrated the potential and biological mechanisms of integrating BC and Mn2+ as additives in compost humification.

Abstract
Simulated cattle manure deposition was used to estimate nutrient transfer to soil and oats and to investigate changes in microbial community composition and functional groups in oat rhizospheres. Nutrient absorption and return efficiency were calculated as a series of standard calculation formulas, and total nutrient transfer efficiency was nutrient absorption efficiency plus nutrient return efficiency. In total, 74.83% of nitrogen (N) and 59.30% of phosphorus (P) in cattle manure were transferred to soil and oats, with 11.79% of N and 7.89% of P in cattle manure absorbed by oats, and the remainder sequestered in the soil for 80 days after sowing. Cattle manure increased oat root length, surface, and volume under 0.2 mm diameter, and improved relative abundance of the microbiome known to be beneficial. In response to cattle manure, several bacteria known to be beneficial, such as Proteobacteria, Bacteroidota, and Firmicutes at phyla the level and Pseudoxanthomonas, Pseudomonas, and Sphingomonas at the genus level, were positively related to oat biomass and nutrient accumulation. For fungal communities, the relative abundance of Ascomycota is the predominant phylum, which varied in a larger range in the control treatment (81.0–63.3%) than the cattle manure deposition treatment (37.0–42.9%) as plant growing days extend. The relevant abundance of Basidiomycota known as decomposer was higher in cattle manure deposition treatment compared to that in control treatment at 15 days after sowing. More importantly, cattle manure deposition inhibited trophic mode within pathotroph like Alternaria and Fusarium fungal genus and promoted saprotroph and symbiotroph.

Abstract
At present, the effect of multiple antibiotics on aerobic composting process and its mechanism are not clear. So in this study, broiler manure containing different doses of Doxycycline (DOX) and Gatifloxacin (GAT) were used as raw materials and mixed with rice hull for aerobic composting, and the effects of the combination of multiple antibiotics on the process parameters of broiler manure composting and the succession of bacterial and fungal community structures were systematically analyzed. Our results showed that at the initial period of composting, the combination of multiple antibiotics led to a delayed temperature and pH increase (T1: 57.0 °C, T2: 48.3 °C, T3: 45.5 °C on Day 3 for temperature and T1: 7.44, T2: 7.1, T3: 6.88 on Day 5 for pH), and a slow total nitrogen decrease (T1: 1.56%, T2: 1.82%, T3: 1.74% on Day 5). Although these effects decreased gradually with the degradation of antibiotics, the relative abundance of Actinobacteriota (T1: 13.29%, T2: 10.57%, T3: 8.99%) and Bacteroidota (T1:27.52%, T2:40.03%, T3:39.81%)) were still influenced by multiple antibiotic residuals until the end of composting period. Higher levels of antibiotics had more lasting effects on the bacterial community (T3 > T2). However, the combination of these two antibiotics did not significantly promote or inhibit the succession of the fungal community structure. The heatmaps showed that composting stage had a greater effect on the microbial community structures than antibiotics. The results provided a theoretical reference for composting broiler manure containing DOX and GAT.

Abstract
Consortia of microbial community are involved in organic waste decomposition in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill via competition, syntropy, and predation. Bacterial and archaeal community structure and function have been extensively studied in this process, whereas the eukaryotic community structure and function are largely unidentified. This gap stands for one of the fundamental researches of microbial ecology, that is, "what is the importance of variation in eukaryotic community structure and function to solid waste decomposition? The main idea of this work is to characterize changes in eukaryotic community composition and the associated driver during solid waste decomposition. Using high throughput sequencing targeting 18S rRNA genes, community composition and dynamics of eukaryotic during solid wasted decomposition were studied, as well as the differences with solid waste and leachate physiochemical parameters. Concomitant to the expected changes in physiochemical factors, eukaryotic community composition and diversity changed along solid waste decomposition indicated by aerobic phase (AP), anaerobic acid phase (ACP), and methanogenic phase (MP) and the structure was shaped by the nutrients (BOD5, total phosphorus, and nitrate) in leachate. Ascomycota, the predominant eukaryote, showed significant (p < 0.05) different structure among AP, ACP, and MP in phylum, genera, and species levels. Abundant Freshwater Opisthokonta was present in MP, suggesting a methane carbon cycling via grazing methane oxidation microorganism. Amoebozoa, Alveolata, Rhizaria, and Stramenopiles showed successional pattern during solid waste decomposition, indicating a short food chain establishment. Characterization on eukaryotic community composition and dynamics during solid waste decomposition are crucial for understanding of microbial consortia ecological function on solid waste decomposition and are also helpful for MSW management.Key points• Abundant Ascomycota significantly differed at AP, ACP, and MP.• Eukaryotic succession indicated a short food chain establishment.• Entire eukaryotic community structure was associated to nutrients in leachate.

Abstract
Fungi are reputed to play a significant role in the composting matrix as decomposers of recalcitrant organic materials like cellulose and lignin. However, information on the fungi communities' roles in nitrogen transformation under a compost-biochar mixture is scarce. This study investigated shifts in fungal species mediating N transformation and their network patterns in cattle manure-corn straw (CMCS) and CMCS plus biochar (CMCB) composting using high-throughput sequencing data. The results revealed that the addition of biochar altered fungal richness and diversity and significantly influenced their compositions during composting. Biochar also altered the compost fungal network patterns; CMCS had a more complex network with higher positive links than CMCB, suggesting stable niche overlap. The consistent agreement of multivariate analyses (redundancy, network, regression, Mantel and path analyses) indicated that Ciliophora_sp in CMCS and unclassified_norank_Pleosporales in CMCB were the key fungal species mediating total N transformation, whereas Scedosporium_prolificans in CMCS and unclassified_Microascaceae in CMCB were identified as major predictive indices determining NO3--N transformation. Also, Coprinopsis cinerea and Penicillium oxalicum were the predictive factors for NH4+-N transformation in CMCS and CMCB during composting. These results indicated that the effects of biochar on N conversions in composting could be unraveled using multivariate analyses on fungi community evolution, network patterns, and metabolism.

Abstract
Composting is the mainstream technology for the treatment of agricultural solid waste, but limited efforts were made to investigate fungal composition and its contributions to nitrogen transformation in different depths of compost. In this study, spatial distributions of fungi were analyzed using high throughput sequencing by multi-angle analyses, and the key fungal communities determining nitrogen transformation were quantified and identified by multi-aspect analyses during cow manure composting. Multi-angle analyses showed that fungal structure, biomarkers and trophic mode composition varied in different layers, revealing that spatial heterogeneity is the distinctive attribute of composting system. Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were dominant phyla during composting, the two phyla peaked in top and bottom layer respectively. At mesophilic stage, Tremellales, and unclassified Ascomycota (order) were biomarkers in top and middle layer respectively, and so were Remersonia, Pyrenochaetopsis, and Wallemia in bottom layer by LEfSe analysis. Based on multi-aspect analyses, Unclassified Dothideomycetes mainly affected NH4+-N transformation both in top (1.2816***) and middle layers (1.1726*). Trichocladium asperum (0.9536***) and Zopfiella (-0.9484***) mainly affected TN transformation in top layer. Guehomyces pullulans (-0.9684**) and Preussia (-1.0508**) regulated NO3--N transformation in middle layer. Thermomyces lanuginosus (0.7127***) and Typhula sp. UW973129 (0.7298***) were the key species promoting TN and C/N transformation in bottom layer, respectively. Interestingly, different fungal communities showed a complex network interaction driving nitrogen transformation, and the abundance of microbial community could be conducive to characterizing nitrogen transformation in the vertical space of composting.

Abstract
Surface mining is a critical anthropogenic activity that significantly alters the ecosystem, while the use of appropriate revegetation techniques can be considered an important and feasible strategy in the way to improve the ecosystem services of degraded land. In the present study, we carried out a pot experiment to investigate the effects of three different variables on morpho-physiological and biochemical parameters of Onobrychis viciifolia to assess the capability of this species to be used for restoration purposes. Specifically, the variables studied were: (a) water (W) regime, working at five values as regards field capacity (FC) (i.e., 80% FC = highest, 72% FC = high, 60% FC = moderate, 48% FC = low, and 40% FC = very-low dose); and (b) rates of cattle manure compost (CMC) and wood biochar (BC) (weight/weight ratio), working at five rates (i.e., 4.0% = highest, 3.2% = high, 2.0% = moderate, 0.8% = low, and 0% = either no-CMC or no-BC dose). In addition, soil physical-chemical properties and enzyme activities were also investigated at the end of the experimental period. It was found that morphological growth attributes such as plant height, maximum root length, and dry biomass significantly increased with W, CMC and BC applications. Compared to control, moderate-to-high W, CMC and BC doses (W80CMC2BC2) increased net photosynthesis rate (by 42%), stomatal conductance (by 50%), transpiration rate (by 29%), water use efficiency (by 10%), chlorophyll contents (by 73%), carotenoid content (by 81%), leaf relative water content (by 33%) and leaf membrane stability index (by 30%). Under low-W content, the application of CMC and BC enhanced osmotic adjustments by increasing the content of soluble sugar and the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase and ascorbate peroxidase, decreasing the oxidative stress, as verified by low levels of hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion, malondialdehyde and proline contents in leaf tissues. Moreover, application of W, CMC and BC significantly improved soil water holding capacity, available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, urease and catalase activities, which facilitate plant growth. These results would aid in designing an appropriate strategy for achieving a successful revegetation of O. viciifolia, providing optimum doses of W (64% field capacity), CMC (2.4%) and BC (1.7%), with the final aim of reaching ecological restoration in arid degraded lands.

The relationship between material transformation, microbial community and amino acids and alkaloid metabolites in the mushroom residue-prickly ash seed oil meal composting with biocontrol agent addition. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2022; 350:126913.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of adding biocontrol microbes on metabolites and pathogenic microorganisms during mushroom residue composting and the relationships of metabolite changes with microbes and material transformation. The results showed that the addition of Bacillus subtilis (BS) and Trichoderma harzianum (TH) with mushroom residue promoted the conversion of organic carbon and nitrogen. The abundance of pathogenic microbes was increased in biocontrol microbial treatments. BS or TH treatments increased the levels of amino acids, carbohydrates, and bacteriostatic alkaloid metabolites. Network analysis revealed that the main microorganisms significantly related to alkaloid metabolites were Rhabdanaerobium, Atopostipes, Planifilum and Ureibacillus. The increased bacterial abundance and decreased NO3--N and TOC were closely related to the increases in amino acid and alkaloid metabolites after biocontrol agent treatments. Generally, adding biocontrol microbes is an effective way to increase the levels of antibacterial metabolites, but there is a risk of increasing the abundance of pathogenic microbes.

Soil microbial communities following 20 years of fertilization and crop rotation practices in the Czech Republic. ENVIRONMENTAL MICROBIOME 2022; 17:13. [PMID: 35346385 PMCID: PMC8962459 DOI: 10.1186/s40793-022-00406-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although fertilization and crop rotation practices are commonly used worldwide in agriculture to maximize crop yields, their long-term effect on the structures of soil microorganisms is still poorly understood. This study investigated the long-term impact of fertilization and crop rotation on soil microbial diversity and the microbial community structure in four different locations with three soil types. Since 1996, manure (MF; 330 kg N/ha), sewage sludge (SF; 330 and SF3x; 990 kg N/ha), and NPK (NPK; 330 kg N/ha) fertilizers were periodically applied to the soils classified as chernozem, luvisol and cambisol, which are among the most abundant or fertile soils used for agricultural purposes in the world. In these soils, potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), and spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) were rotated every three years. RESULTS Soil chemistry, which was significantly associated with location, fertilization, crop rotation, and the interaction of fertilization and location, was the dominant driver of soil microbial communities, both prokaryotic and fungal. A direct effect of long-term crop rotation and fertilization on the structure of their communities was confirmed, although there was no evidence of their influence on microbial diversity. Fungal and bacterial communities responded differently to fertilization treatments; prokaryotic communities were only significantly different from the control soil (CF) in soils treated with MF and SF3x, while fungal communities differed across all treatments. Indicator genera were identified for different treatments. These taxa were either specific for their decomposition activities or fungal plant pathogens. Sequential rotation of the three crops restricted the growth of several of the indicator plant pathogens. CONCLUSIONS Long-term fertilization and crop rotation significantly altered microbial community structure in the soil. While fertilization affected soil microorganisms mainly through changes in nutrient profile, crop rotations lead to the attraction and repulsion of specific plant pathogens. Such changes in soil microbial communities need to be considered when planning soil management.

Abstract
The presence of pathogenic bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in milk are among the most important issues related to the safety of dairy products and the health of consumers. However, despite that dairy cow are housed for long periods of time on different beddings, the effect of different bedding materials on the microbiota and presence of ARGs is unclear. In this study, the composition of microorganisms, and the presence of mastitis pathogens and 33 ARGs targeting seven antibiotics in raw milk produced from farms using sand bedding, rice husk bedding, and recycled manure solids (RMS) bedding were compared by amplicon sequencing and real-time quantitative PCR. The results showed that the microbial composition of milk was related to the microbiota of bedding. None of the mastitis pathogens were detected in milk from cows housed on sand bedding (S-M). The proportion of ARGs was highest in the S-M group and lowest in the milk from cows housed on RMS bedding (RMS-M) group. In general, the content of ARGs in RMS-M was the lowest, however, the RMS bedding may pose a threat to the breast health of dairy cows.

Abstract
Available information that whether antibiotics affect the succession in microbial communities during aerobic composting remains limited. Thus, this work investigated the dynamic changes in bacterial and fungal structures during aerobic composting amended with tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH: 0, 50, 150 and 300 mg kg-1). Composting phases significantly affected bacterial and fungal communities, but only fungi strongly responded to antibiotics, while bacteria did not. Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidota and Actinobacteriota were primary bacterial phylum. Neocallimastigomycota was dominant fungal phylum at temperature-heating phase, then Basidiomycota and Ascomycota became main fungal phylum at thermophilic and temperature-colling phases. Low TCH concentration promoted Chytridiomycota growth, while high TCH concentration inhibited mostly fungal activity in TCH-amended composting. Nitrogen species were critical factors controlling the succession in bacterial and fungal communities during composting process. These results cast a new light on understanding about microbial function during aerobic composting.

Abstract
The influences of combination of garbage enzyme and biochar on total organic carbon (TOC) degradation, humification and the fungal succession during sewage sludge (SS) composting were established. Results showed that the GE and BC + GE treatments significantly increased the enzyme activity of fluorescein diacetate hydrolase (FDA) and increased the TOC degradation rate by 9.8% and 21.9% relative to control. The excitation-emission matrix (EEM) combined with the percentage fluorescence response (Pi, n) also proved that the combination of BC and GE promoted fulvic acid-like and humic-like substances production, and thus increased humification. Furthermore, the combination of BC and GE effectively decreased the relative abundance of Unclassified_k_Fugni, while increased the abundance of Ascomycota and Basidiomycota compared with control. The four genera, Pseudeurotium, Talaromyces, Trichoderma, and Penicillium, were the main fungi for the humification. Comparatively, the combined of BC and GE showed the optimal performance for TOC degradation and humification during SS composting.
