The article, titled “Characteristics of bacterial community and extracellular enzymes in response to atrazine application in black soil”, was published in Environmental Pollution. This study evaluated the change in extracellular enzymes and bacterial community characteristics in black soil after exposure to various concentrations of atrazine.
Key microorganisms such as Sphingomonas and Nocardioides were identified as biomarkers for atrazine dissipation. Functional prediction indicated that most metabolic pathways might be involved in atrazine dissipation.
Overall, the findings enhance our understanding of the factors driving atrazine degradation in black soil and support the use of biomarkers as indicators of atrazine dissipation.
