Multiple factors influence bacterial community diversity and composition in soils with rare earth element and heavy metal co-contamination

The effects of long-term rare earth element (REE) and heavy metal (HM) contamination on soil bacterial communities remains poorly understood. In this study, soil samples co-contaminated with REEs and HMs were collected from a rare-earth tailing dam. The bacterial community composition and diversity...
