Livestock manure is often used as fertilizer in greenhouses, resulting in simultaneous enrichment of heavy metals and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in soils. The soil-plant system is a non-negligible way to spread ARGs; however, the effects of lead (Pb) on the spread of ARGs and their driving factors in the greenhouse soil-plant system remain unclear. In this present study, the occurrence of ARGs in greenhouse soils and their spread into plants under Pb stress were studied. Overall, Pb promoted the accumulation of ARGs in root endophytes at 10, 50, and 100 mg/kg as well as in soils at 10 and 200 mg/kg, but reduced the total relative abundance of ARGs in leaf endophytes. Particularly, Pb increased the mobile genetic elements (MGEs) relative abundance and endophytic bacterial community diversity in roots, consistent with the change in the total relative abundance of ARGs. Network analysis revealed that bacterial community and MGEs may jointly affect the migration of ARGs in the soil-plant system of greenhouses. Overall, this study extended our knowledge of how Pb can promote the transmission of ARGs to plant roots from greenhouse soils receiving long-term manure applications, which must be considered when assessing the risk of ARGs to public health.
