A study has analyzed the effects of biosolids on soil using a longitudinal replicated metagenomic approach. The analysis found an enrichment of certain elements, including antibiotic resistance genes, virulence factors, and ESKAPE pathogens, in soils amended with biosolids. The study's findings suggest a potential impact of biosolids on soil microbiology.
