Abstract Microplastics (size< 5 mm) debris are environmentally persistent pollutants that
severely affect terrestrial ecosystems by promoting the loss of soil fertility, and microbiome …

Environmental pollution of microplastics (MPs) is known to be anthropogenically mediated
menace to biosphere and becoming a debatable concern globally. Large quantities of …

Microplastic is an emerging contaminant of concern in soil globally due to its widespread
and potential risks on the ecological system. Some basic issues such as the occurrence …

Plastics, especially microplastics in soils, are considered a severe environmental issue
worldwide. However, globally, the main research focus is on microplastic pollution in the …

Microplastic contamination in soil has received increasing attention since excessive plastic
debris has been emitted directly into the terrestrial environment. Once released into the …

Microplastics are emerging contaminants and there has been growing concern regarding
