Abstract
The widely used phenylurea herbicide isoproturon (IPU) and its residues can inhibit the growth of subsequently planted crops. However, reports on bioremediation of IPU-contaminated soil are scarce. In this study, Sphingobium sp. strain YBL2-gfp (a derivative of the IPU-degrading Sphingobium sp. strain YBL2 isolated by our lab) was constructed to bioremediate IPU-contaminated soil. In pot experiments, strain YBL2-gfp colonized the roots of wheat and eliminated IPU residues in the soil within 21 d, effectively alleviating its toxicity and restoring wheat growth. IPU treatment reduced the richness and diversity of soil bacteria, while inoculation YBL2-gfp mainly affected richness with less impact on diversity. The high concentrations of IPU and inoculation of YBL2-gfp alone reduced the soil microbial community connections, while bioaugmentation treatment enhanced the soil microbial community connections. Additionally, strain YBL2-gfp stimulated the metabolic capacity of the indigenous microbes, promoting the degradation of IPU and reducing the negative impact of high concentrations of IPU on microbial community. Taken together, this study offers relatively comprehensive insights into the practical application of bioaugmentation, demonstrating that strain YBL2 has the potential to remediate IPU-contaminated soils.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 472:134474. [PMID: 38696961 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134474] [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: 12/27/2023] [Revised: 04/13/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024]
Abstract
Body size is a key life-history trait of organisms, which has important ecological functions. However, the relationship between soil antibiotic resistance gene (ARG) distribution and organisms' body size has not been systematically reported so far. Herein, the impact of organic fertilizer on the soil ARGs and organisms (bacteria, fungi, and nematode) at the aggregate level was analyzed. The results showed that the smaller the soil aggregate size, the greater the abundance of ARGs, and the larger the body size of bacteria and nematodes. Further analysis revealed significant positive correlations of ARG abundance with the body sizes of bacteria, fungi, and nematodes, respectively. Additionally, the structural equation model demonstrated that changes in soil fertility mainly regulate the ARG abundance by affecting bacterial body size. The random forest model revealed that total phosphorus was the primary soil fertility factor influencing the body size of organisms. Therefore, these findings proposed that excessive application of phosphate fertilizers could increase the risk of soil ARG transmission by increasing the body size of soil organisms. This study highlights the significance of organisms' body size in determining the distribution of soil ARGs and proposes a new disadvantage of excessive fertilization from the perspective of ARGs.
