摘要

Abstract

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have been considered as emerging contaminants in nature owing to their wide distribution and human health risk. Anthropogenic activities can increase the diversity and abundance of ARGs and promote their spread in environment. Offshore environment is affected by multiple types of anthropogenic activities

of which excessive accumulation of petroleum substances poses a serious threat. Our previous experimental study has demonstrated that petroleum can increase the abundance of sulfonamide resistance genes (SRGs) in the seawater through horizontal gene transfer. However

the influence of petroleum substances on SRGs in offshore environment

especially adjacent the petroleum exploitation platform

is still unclear. Therefore

the effect of offshore oil exploitation on SRGs was investigated in the surface sediments collected from the Liaodong Bay

north China. The genes of

sul1

and

sul2

were present in all of the collected samples

while the

sul3

gene was not detected in any sediments. The absolute abundance of

sul2

gene in each sample was higher than

sul1

gene. Class 1 integrons enhanced the maintenance and propagation of

sul1

gene but not

sul2

gene. More importantly

the results indicate that the absolute abundance of

sul2

gene present in the offshore sediments that affected by petroleum exploitation was significantly higher than those in control. These findings provided direct evidence that offshore oil exploitation can influence the propagation of SRGs and implied that a more comprehensive risk assessment of petroleum substances to public health risks should be conducted.
