Biodegradable microplastics impact on soil: how poly-3-hydroxybutyrate alters microbial diversity and nitrogen mineralization processes

Abstract Background Poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (P3HB) is a biodegradable plastic that may affect soil quality and plant growth. To explain the observed deterioration of plant growth, this study investigated the effects of P3HB microplastics on the soil microbiome and its activity related to content of n...
