Abstract: |
Soil health, particularly agricultural soil health, is closely related to food safety. However, several food-borne bacterial pathogens, such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, and Listeria monocytogenes, have been detected in soil. Some bacterial pathogens have adapted to various biotic and abiotic environments to improve their survival in soil. Their virulence genes and antibiotic resistance genes may be transmitted via the food supply system, creating risks for both soil environmental biosafety and consumer health. In this review, we focused on the sources of food-borne bacterial pathogens in soil, factors that influence their survival, and decontamination technologies including source disinfestation and in situ remediation. Future studies are needed to evaluate pathogen decontamination technologies and strategies. Research directions are discussed from the perspectives of improving the soil ′ s chemical and physical environment, transmission blocking, and biocontrol to promote the development of methods for maintaining soil health and protecting food safety. |
