This study used a metagenomic approach to investigate the effects of earthworms on ARGs and HPB during the vermicomposting of dewatered sludge. Results showed that 139 types of ARGs were found in sludge vermicompost, affiliated to 30 classes. Compared with the control, the total abundance of ARGs in sludge vermicompost decreased by 41.5%. Moreover, the types and sequences of plasmids and integrons were also decreased by vermicomposting. Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria were the most dominant hosts of ARGs in sludge vermicompost. In addition, earthworms reduced the total HPB abundance and modified their diversity, thus leading to higher abundance of Enterobacteriaceae in sludge vermicompost. However, the sludge vermicompost was still ARG and HPB enriched, indicating a remaining environmental risk for agricultural purpose. The observed change of microbial community and the reduction of mobile genetic elements caused by earthworm activity are the main reasons for the alleviation of ARG pollution during vermicomposting.
