- Response of soil fungal communities to long-term soil mercury pollution (2026) · doi
The results of this study provide a scientific basis for further studies on the mechanism of mercury tolerance in soil fungi under long-term mercury stress.
Keywords: mercury provide scientific basis further mechanism tolerance soil fungi long term stress - Emerging investigator series: mercury mobility and methylmercury formation in a contaminated agricultural flood plain: influence of flooding and manure addition (2019) · doi
The fate and the methylation of mercury (Hg) in the terrestrial environment are still poorly understood and although the main drivers of release and methylation of mercury in soils are known (low redox potential and microbial carbon availability) their interactions are not well understood.
