Manure application increases the transfer risk of antibiotic resistance to farmland. Especially, its impact remains unclear when it occurs in arsenic (As)-contaminated paddy soils, which is considered as a global environmental problem. In this work, we investigated the fate of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in As-antibiotic co-contaminated paddy soils under the application of manure from different sources (pig manure, cow dung, and chicken manure). Differences in the aliphatic carbon and electron-donating capacities of these dissolved organic matters (DOM) regulated the transformation of iron and As by both biotic and abiotic processes. The regulation by pig manure was stronger than that by cow dung and chicken manure. DOM regulation increased the abundance of As-related functional genes (arsC, arrA, aioA, and arsM) in the soil and accelerated the transformation of As speciation, the highest proportion of As(III) being 45%–61%. Meanwhile, the continuous selection pressure provided by the highly toxic As(III) increased the risk of ARGs and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) via horizontal gene transfer. As-resistant bacteria, including Bacillus, Geobacter, and Desulfitobacterium, were finally considered as potential host bacteria for ARGs and MGEs. In summary, this study clarified the synergistic mechanism of As-antibiotic on the fate of ARGs in co-contaminated paddy soils, and provided practical guidance for the proper application of organic fertilizers.
