Microbial resistance in rhizosphere hotspots under biodegradable and non-degradable microplastic amendment: Community and functional sensitivity
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers examined microbial community and functional sensitivity in rhizosphere hotspots amended with biodegradable and non-degradable microplastics, assessing how different polymer types affect microbial resistance and functional diversity in agricultural soils.
Microplastic Alters Rhizosphere Microbiome: A Review
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers review how microplastic accumulation in soil disrupts the rhizosphere microbiome — the community of beneficial microorganisms surrounding plant roots — impairing nutrient uptake and pathogen resistance in ways that could threaten agricultural productivity and soil ecosystem health.
Impact of Microplastic Accumulation on Rhizosphere Activities in Soil
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers examine how microplastic accumulation in soil alters rhizosphere dynamics, finding that plastic particles disrupt microbial communities and enzyme activities in the root zone, with downstream effects on nutrient cycling and overall soil health.
The regulated effects of phosphorus addition on rhizosphere microecology under microplastic pollution: a comparison based on different plant types
AI summary Read the abstract
A pot experiment found that polyethylene microplastics and phosphorus fertilizers interact in crop-specific ways, altering root growth and soil moisture differently in wheat versus maize. Understanding these interactions matters because microplastic contamination in farmland soils could undermine fertilizer strategies and threaten crop productivity.
Microbiomes Against Microplastic Pollution in Agriculture: Biodegradation, Remediation, and Soil Health Implications
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed how soil microbiomes interact with microplastics in agricultural settings, finding that microbial communities offer biodegradation and remediation potential, though intensive plastic use in farming combined with fertilizer and wastewater inputs continuously introduces microplastics into soils with implications for soil health.
