F. A. aChemical attributes, bacterial community, and antibiotic resistance genes are affected by intensive use of soil in agro‑ecosystems of the Atlantic Forest, Southeastern Brazil.h[electronic resource] c2024 aThe aim of this study was to evaluate the efects of an intensive soil management system on the chemical attributes, composition and structure of prevalent bacterial communities, and presence and abundance of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). The chemical characterization, bacterial diversity and relative abundance of ARGs were evaluated in soils from areas of intensive vegetable cultivation and forests. Results indicate that levels of nutrients and heavy metals were higher in soil samples from cultivated areas. Similarly, greater enrichment and diversity of bacterial genera was detected in agricultural areas. aSoil management aAntimicrobial aBacterial resistance aSoil microbiota1 aROCHA, F.
