Microplastics and decabromodiphenyl ethane co-exposure exerts antagonistic effects on microbial communities in a soil-earthworm system.
The co-occurrence of microplastics (MPs) and decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) is of increasing concern due to their potential combined environmental impacts. This study examined microbial communities in earthworm epidermis, gut, and soil, alongside soil enzyme activities and nitrogenous substances, under separate and c...
