Increasing Temperature and Microplastic Fibers Jointly Influence Soil Aggregation by Saprobic Fungi

Microplastic pollution and increasing temperature have potential to influence soil quality; yet little is known about their effects on soil aggregation, a key determinant of soil quality. Given the importance of fungi for soil aggregation, we investigated the impacts of increasing temperature and mi...
