Study shows pesticide residues reduce bacterial diversity in greenhouse soils, suggesting resilience through network motif changes.

The research aims to clarify the impact of pesticide residues on microbial community dynamics and network stability in greenhouse soils.
Analyzed soil samples from greenhouse systems under pesticide exposure
Utilized 16S rRNA sequencing for microbial community assessment
Applied motif-based network analysis to examine interaction patterns
Conducted resilience modeling to evaluate network stability
Pesticide residues caused a significant decline in bacterial diversity
Enhanced network stability despite decreased diversity due to motif restructuring
Triazole fungicides like Hexaconazole were linked to changes in interaction architecture

Wang et al. (2025) studied this question.
