Abstract

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant threat to both human and environmental health. Before human intervention, the natural resistome existed in a relatively balanced state, mainly regulated by microbial interactions and environmental factors. However, the continuous use of antimicrobials and other novel entities (chemicals or biological substances) in agricultural production and clinical settings has resulted in a huge release of residual antimicrobials into the environment. This may lead to a decrease in microbial diversity and an increase in selection pressure. The outcome is the alteration of resistome with mobile and clinically relevant antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), posing a significant risk to human health. In the agricultural sector, the emergence of AMR is a result of multiple mechanisms. It involves intricate interactions between human activities, environmental factors and microbial processes. Direct exposure to antibiotic-resistant bacteria and ARGs in agricultural produce particularly raw eaten vegetables, salad, herbs and fruits may facilitate the spread of resistance between humans and the environment. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of antibiotic resistance in fresh produce microbiomes. It focuses on the impact of agricultural practices on the resistome and risks associated with antibiotic resistance to humans and the environment. More importantly, this review highlights several mitigation strategies and future interventions for a better understanding of ARG transmission within food systems.

植物微生物组的内在和获得性抗微生物抗性组:对农业和公共卫生的影响
抗菌素耐药性(AMR)对人类和环境健康构成重大威胁。在人为干预之前,天然抗性组处于相对平衡的状态,主要受微生物相互作用和环境因素的调节。然而,在农业生产和临床环境中持续使用抗菌素和其他新型实体(化学品或生物物质)导致大量残留抗菌素释放到环境中。这可能导致微生物多样性的减少和选择压力的增加。结果是具有可移动和临床相关的抗生素耐药基因(ARGs)的抵抗组发生改变,对人类健康构成重大风险。在农业部门,抗菌素耐药性的出现是多种机制的结果。它涉及人类活动、环境因素和微生物过程之间复杂的相互作用。直接接触农产品中的抗生素耐药细菌和ARGs,特别是生吃蔬菜、沙拉、草药和水果,可能促进耐药性在人类和环境之间传播。本文综述了新鲜农产品微生物组中抗生素耐药性的研究进展。它侧重于农业实践对抗性组的影响以及与人类和环境的抗生素耐药性相关的风险。更重要的是,本综述强调了若干缓解战略和未来干预措施,以便更好地了解粮食系统内ARG的传播。
