Microplastics in Agricultural Soil: Fate, Impacts, and Bioremediation by Earthworms

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 188, Issue 6, Page 873-893, December 2025.
Microplastics enter the soil through various means, including the degradation of plastic film mulch, waste from cosmetics industries and municipalities, and the use of bioplastic seed coatings. These microplastics disrupt soil structure, microbial activity, enzyme function, and plant growth.

Co‐presence of black soldier fly frass, soil‐biodegradable mulch films, and earthworms: effects on film biodegradation, ecotoxicity, and microbial community

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 14, Page 8094-8107, November 2025.
Abstract Background Soil‐biodegradable mulch films (SBF) are used increasingly to enhance crop yields while addressing soil pollution and disposal issues. Another sustainable practice gaining attention is the use of soil amendments derived from waste, such as insect frass from Hermetia illucens.

No Mate, No Problem: Molecular Mechanisms Involved in Parthenogenesis in the Cosmopolitan Earthworm Aporrectodea trapezoides (Annelida, Clitellata)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 16, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Approximately, 40% of earthworm species can reproduce by parthenogenesis. This is the case for the cosmopolitan species, Aporrectodea trapezoides, although sexual forms have been described sporadically. We analyse the genotypes and microbiomes of 30 individuals from four localities where both forms appear in order to understand the ...

From waste to reuse: Fenton degradation of anticancer drugs in hospital wastewater using iron mining residue

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1472-1481, July 2025.
Abstract BACKGROUND The heterogeneous photo‐Fenton process demands stable and efficient materials as catalysts to decompose hydrogen peroxide and generate reactive oxygen species to promote the degradation of organic contaminants in wastewater. In this study, the catalytic activity of an iron mining residue (IMR) was investigated for the heterogeneous ...
