Abstract:

Bisphenol A (BPA), with its wide array of products and applications, is currently one of the most commonly produced chemicals in the world. A narrow pool of data on BPA-microorganism-plant interaction mechanisms has stimulated the following research, the aim of which has been to determine the response of the soil microbiome and crop plants, as well as the activity of soil enzymes exposed to BPA pressure. A range of disturbances was assessed, based on the activity of seven soil enzymes, an abundance of five groups of microorganisms, and the structural diversity of the soil microbiome. The condition of the soil was verified by determining the values of the indices: colony development (CD), ecophysiological diversity (EP), the Shannon-Weaver index, and the Simpson index, tolerance of soil enzymes, microorganisms and plants (TI), biochemical soil fertility (BA), the ratio of the mass of aerial parts to the mass of plant roots (PR), and the leaf greenness index: Soil and Plant Analysis Development (SPAD). The data brought into sharp focus the adverse effects of BPA on the abundance and ecophysiological diversity of fungi. A change in the structural composition of bacteria was noted. Bisphenol A had a more beneficial effect on thethan on bacteria from the phylaor. The microbiome of the soil exposed to BPA was numerously represented by bacteria from the genus. In this object pool, the highest fungal OTU richness was achieved by the genus, a representative of the phylum. A dose of 1000 mg BPA kgd.m. of soil depressed the activity of dehydrogenases, urease, acid phosphatase and-glucosidase, while increasing that of alkaline phosphatase and arylsulfatase. Spring oilseed rape and maize responded significantly negatively to the soil contamination with BPA.
