Summary
Researchers investigated the effects of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) biodegradable microplastics on Arabidopsis thaliana and its root-associated microbiome, finding that PBAT-MPs at tested concentrations in agricultural soil caused negative impacts on plant growth and altered the composition of root-zone microbial communities.
Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) is a biodegradable polymer that is widely used in the production of biodegradable mulch films in order to reduce the white pollution caused by non-biodegradable polyethylene mulch. Despite its widespread use in agriculture, the effects of PBAT microplastics (PBAT-MPs) on plant growth and microbial communities have rarely been reported. In this study, Arabidopsis thaliana were planted as model crop in soil containing 2 Also see: https://micro2024.sciencesconf.org/558926/document
