Abstract: |
The fate of heavy metal, antibiotics, bacterial community and so on in soil with reclaimed water irrigation had been investigated, however, the effect of reclaimed water irrigation on the fate of antibiotics resistance genes (ARGs) was remain unknown. Through the literature review, the occurrence of ARGs in environment with the application of reclaimed water and the factors that affecting the behavior of ARGs during the process of reclaimed water irrigation were illustrated. To better interpret the fate of ARGs, future research should focus on: the occurrence of ARGs in soil and crop with various irrigation technique and irrigation system, long-time monitoring the fate of ARGs and bacterial community in groundwater under reuse of reclaimed water, and the transformation of ARGs in reclaimed water-soil-crop system. |
