Raw amplicon sequencing data for: Interactive effects of nitrogen deposition and microplastics on rhizosphere soil microbial communities in Populus kangdingensis
AI summary Read the abstract
Scientists tested how microplastics (from plastic pollution) and nitrogen pollution together affect the soil bacteria and fungi living around poplar tree roots. This is a raw dataset release, not a full results paper, so it doesn't yet tell us the actual findings, but it's building the groundwork for understanding how these two common environmental pollutants might combine to disrupt soil ecosystems that plants, and ultimately our food and environment, depend on.
Raw 16S rRNA (V4–V5) and ITS1 amplicon sequencing data from a factorial pot experiment testing the interactive effects of polyethylene and polylactic acid microplastics and nitrogen deposition on the rhizosphere microbiome of Populus kangdingensis. Twenty-seven samples (3 microplastic treatments × 3 nitrogen levels × 3 replicates). Sequenced on Illumina.

Raw amplicon sequencing data for: Interactive effects of nitrogen deposition and microplastics on rhizosphere soil microbial communities in Populus kangdingensis
AI summary Read the abstract
Scientists tested how microplastics (from plastic pollution) and nitrogen pollution together affect the tiny microbes living around tree roots, using a poplar tree species as their test case. This is a raw data release rather than a full study with conclusions, but the underlying research matters because soil microbes play a big role in plant health and environmental cleanup, and understanding how pollution disrupts these microbial communities could help us predict broader ecosystem impacts as microplastic and nitrogen pollution continue to rise.
Dataset on the response of black soil microbial communities and functions to conventional and biodegradable microplastics 01
AI summary Read the abstract
Scientists studied how both regular and "eco-friendly" plastic bits affect the tiny microbes living in farm soil, since these microbes help crops grow and keep soil healthy. This dataset itself does not report final conclusions, but provides detailed genetic and microbial data for future research. Understanding how microplastics change soil life matters because healthy soil affects the food we eat, and biodegradable plastics may not be as harmless as assumed.
Investigation of Soil-Dwelling Bacterial Community Changes Induced by Microplastic Ex posure Using Amplicon Sequencing
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers analyzed soil bacterial community composition after microplastic contamination, finding that different polymer types caused distinct shifts in microbial diversity and functional groups, with implications for soil nutrient cycling and agricultural productivity.
