英文摘要 | Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) are worldwide considered as emerging contaminants of large interest, and a primary threat to human health. It is becoming clear that the environment plays a central role in the transmission, spread, and evolution of antibiotic resistance. Although marine systems have been largely investigated, only a few studies have considered the presence of ARGs in meso- and bathypelagic waters. To date, no molecular based studies have yet been made to investigate the occurrence of ARGs in the Black Sea, the largest meromictic basin in the world, receiving water from a number of important European rivers and their residues of anthropogenic activities in permanently stratified mesopelagic water masses. In this study, we determined the presence and the abundance of five ARGs (blaCTXM, ermB, qnrS, sul2, tetA) and of the heavy metal resistance gene (HMRG) czcA, in different sampling sites in the eastern and western Black Sea, at several depths (up to 1000 m) and various distances from the shoreline. Three ARGs (blaCTXM, sul2, and tetA) and czcA were present in at least 43% of the analysed samples, whereas ermB and qnrS were never detected. In particular, sul2 abundances increased significantly in coastal location, whereas tetA increased with sampling depth. These findings point out the Black Sea as a source of ARGs and HMRGs distributed along the whole water column. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd |
