Soil microbiome alterations in pesticide exposed agricultural land
This study aims to investigate the impact of pesticide application on soil microbial communities in agricultural land using 16S rRNA gene V3 V4 amplicon sequencing. By comparing pesticide exposed and uncontaminated soil, the study evaluates changes in bacterial diversity, composition, and potential functional capabilities. Taxonomic and predictive functional analyses are integrated with soil physicochemical parameters to understand how agrochemical stress influences microbial community structure and soil health.
