Consistent responses of soil microbial taxonomic and functional attributes to mercury pollution across China

Abstract Background The ecological consequences of mercury (Hg) pollution—one of the major pollutants worldwide—on microbial taxonomic and functional attributes remain poorly understood and largely unexplored. Using soils from two typical Hg-impacted regions across China, here, we evaluated the role...
