[Plant Growth-promoting Bacteria Alleviate the Toxic Effects of Soil Microplastics and Heavy Metal Complex Pollution in ].

The coexistence of microplastics and heavy metals in soil can lead to more intricate environmental effects. While plant growth-promoting bacteria have been widely recognized for enhancing the remediation of heavy metal-contaminated soils, little research has been conducted to investigate whether they can alleviate the stress of microplastic-heavy metal composite contamination on plants. We investigated the effects of isolated and screened plant growth-promoting bacteria on the growth and cadmium （Cd） accumulation of under the composite pollution of Cd and polypropylene （PP） with different particle sizes （6.

Screening of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria helps alleviate the joint toxicity of PVC+Cd pollution in sorghum plants.

Combined microplastic and heavy metal pollution (CM-HP) has become a popular research topic due to the ability of these pollutants to have complex interactions. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are widely used to alleviate stress from heavy metal pollution in plants. However, the effects and mechanisms by which these bacteria interact under CM-HP have not been extensively studied.

Poor Concordance of One-Third Anterior-Posterior Chest Diameter Measurements With Absolute Age-Specific Chest Compression Depth Targets in Pediatric Cardiac Arrest Patients.

Background Current pediatric cardiac arrest guidelines recommend depressing the chest by one-third anterior-posterior diameter (APD), which is presumed to equate to absolute age-specific chest compression depth targets (4 cm for infants and 5 cm for children). However, no clinical studies during pediatric cardiac arrest have validated this presumption. We aimed to study the concordance of measured one-third APD with absolute age-specific chest compression depth targets in a cohort of pediatric patients with cardiac arrest.

Plastic mulch, especially polyethylene mulch, is widely used in agricultural production in China, but the microplastics formed by its degradation gradually have accumulated in soil, causing a series of environmental problems. At present, there have been many reports on the environmental biological effects of microplastics in farmland soil, but studies on the effects of microplastics on crop growth, disease occurrence, and rhizosphere soil bacterial communities are still lacking. In the previous study, it was found that 1% high-density polyethylene (HDPE, 500 mesh) could increase the incidence rate of cotton wilt (33.

The Seasonal Patterns, Ecological Function and Assembly Processes of Bacterioplankton Communities in the Danjiangkou Reservoir, China.

As the water source for the Middle Route Project of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project (MR-SNWD) of China, the Danjiangkou Reservoir (DJR) is in the process of ecosystem reassembly, but the composition, function, and assembly mechanisms of bacterioplankton communities are not yet clear. In this study, the composition, distribution characteristics and influencing factors of bacterioplankton communities were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing (HTS); PICRUSt2 was used to predict community function; a molecular ecological network was used to analyze bacterioplankton interactions; and the assembly process of bacterioplankton communities was estimated with a neutral model. The results indicated that the communities, function and interaction of bacterioplankton in the DJR had significant annual and seasonal variations and that the seasonal differences were greater than that the annual differences.
