Investigations of pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) during wastewater storage are necessary for lowering the risks for wastewater reuse but are still mostly lacking. This study aimed to investigate pathogens, including harmful plant pathogens, and ARGs during 180 d of swine wastewater (SWW) storage in an anaerobic storage experiment. The contents of total organic carbon and total nitrogen in SWW were found to consistently decrease with the extension of storage time. Bacterial abundance and fungal abundance significantly decreased with storage time, which may be mainly attributed to nutrient loss during storage and the long period of exposure to a high level (4653.2 \u03bcg\/L) of sulfonamides in the SWW, which have an inhibitory effect. It was found that suspected bacterial pathogens (e.g., Escherichia\u2013Shigella spp., Vibrio spp., Arcobacter spp., Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 spp., and Pseudomonas spp.) and sulfonamide-resistant genes Sul1, Sul2, Sul3, and SulA tended to persist and even become enriched during SWW storage. Interestingly, some suspected plant fungal species (e.g., Fusarium spp., Ustilago spp. and Blumeria spp.) were detected in SWW. Fungi in the SWW, including threatening fungal pathogens, were completely removed after 60 d of anaerobic storage, indicating that storage could lower the risk of using SWW in crop production. The results clearly indicate that storage time is crucial for SWW properties, and long periods of anaerobic storage could lead to substantial nutrient loss and enrichment of bacterial pathogens and ARGs in SWW.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph20043135","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,13]],"date-time":"2023-02-13T02:42:33Z","timestamp":1676256153000},"page":"3135","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Anaerobic Storage Completely Removes Suspected Fungal Pathogens but Increases Antibiotic Resistance Gene Levels in Swine Wastewater High in Sulfonamides"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Xinyue","family":"Zhao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Life Sciences, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310058, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mengjie","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Life Sciences, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310058, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhilin","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Architecture Engineering, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310058, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3509-7634","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Huabao","family":"Zheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Zhejiang Province Key Laboratory of Soil Contamination Bioremediation, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qifa","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Life Sciences, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310058, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"6770","DOI":"10.1007\/s11356-016-8324-3","article-title":"Source analysis of organic matter in swine wastewater after anaerobic digestion with EEM-PARAFAC","volume":"24","author":"Zeng","year":"2017","journal-title":"Environ.
