The ubiquitous presence of microplastics represents an anthropogenic stressor on aquatic
and terrestrial ecosystems. Following a decade of study on the detection and potential …

Contamination of soils in agroecosystems with microplastics (MPs) is of increasing concern.
The contamination of the environment/farmland soils with MPs (1 µm to 5 mm sized …

Although our understanding of the effects of microplastics on the dynamics of soil organic
matter (SOM) has considerably advanced in recent years, the fundamental mechanisms …

Microplastics can accumulate in soils and strongly affect the biogeochemical cycle.
Biodegradable plastic films show potential as sustainable alternatives that could reduce …

With the intensification of microplastic (MP) pollution, the impact of MPs on soil ecosystems
has garnered considerable attention. We investigated the effects of two commonly used …

Microplastics (MPs) have emerged as widely existing global environmental concerns in
terrestrial ecosystems. However, the mechanisms that how MPs are affecting soil microbes …

Plastic mulch is frequently used to increase crop yield, resulting in large quantities of
residues accumulating in soil due to low recovery rates. However, the effects of microplastic …

The impact of conventional and biodegradable microplastics on soil nutrients (carbon and
nitrogen) has been widely examined, and the alteration of nutrient conditions further …

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the environment and can potentially damage microbes
and plant root cells. Although the influence of MPs on soil parameters has been …

Microplastics (MPs) serve as vectors for microorganisms and antibiotic resistance genes
(ARGs) and contribute to the spread of pathogenic bacteria and ARGs across various …
