This study explored the effects of Bacillus subtilis at four levels (0, 0.5%, 1%, and 2% w/w compost) on the variations in ARGs, mobile genetic elements (MGEs), and the bacterial community during composting. The composting process had a greater impact on ARGs than Bacillus subtilis. The main ARG detected was sul1. The addition of Bacillus subtilis at 0.5% reduced the relative abundances of ARGs, MGEs, and human pathogenic bacteria (by 2–3 logs) in the mature products. Network and redundancy analyses suggested that intI1, Firmicutes, and pH were mainly responsible for the changes in ARGs, thus controlling these factors might help to inhibit the spread of ARGs.
