TL;DR: It is confirmed that quantifying stable Zn isotopes is useful for understanding Zn accumulation mechanisms in plants.
Abstract: Stable Zn isotope signatures offer a potential tool for tracing Zn uptake and transfer mechanisms within plant–soil systems. Zinc isotopic compositions were determined in the Zn hyperaccumulator No...

TL;DR: In this paper, the diversity and the abundance of total and functional microbial communities were characterized in two types of Technosols constructed to reclaim contaminated sites, and the results showed that the microbial communities played a crucial role in ecosystem functioning.
Abstract: Purpose The construction of Technosols is an emergent technology based on the assemblage of technogenic materials for ecological reclamation of polluted land and waste recycling. Although this technology is in expansion, knowledge about the microbial communities in Technosols is limited, despite their central role in ecosystem functioning. In this 2-year study, the diversity and the abundance of total and functional microbial communities were characterized in two types of Technosols constructed to reclaim contaminated sites.
