Bacterial Community Dynamics in Oil-Contaminated Soils in the Hyper-Arid Arava Valley

Bacterial Community Dynamics in Oil-Contaminated Soils in the Hyper-Arid Arava Valley

Petroleum pollution has become a substantial challenge in soil ecology. The soil bacterial consortia play a major role in the biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons. The main objective of this study was to assess changes in bacterial composition and diversity in oil-contaminated dryland soils. The...
