This work investigated the effects of chemical additive vanillin (V), homofermentative Lactobacillus plantarum (LP), and heterofermentative Lactobacillus brevis (LB) on the distribution of the metabolome, microbial communities, viruses, and antibiotic-resistance genes in high-moisture corn kernel silage. LP and LB improved lactic acid production, whereas V and LB inhibited protein degradation. A significant difference was observed between the metabolite profiles of silage treated with additives and a control. In silage, the Proteobacteria and Ascomycota were the main hosts of antibiotic-resistance genes, primarily antibiotic efflux. The additives significantly affected the virus content in silage, and LB-treated silage featured the lowest virus content. Overall, these findings suggest that the application of the additive LB to high-moisture corn kernel silage impacts antibiotic-resistance gene reduction and virus distribution within the silage.
