    Abstract:
    Elevated CO2 (eCO2) and nanoparticles release are considered among the most noteworthy global concerns as they may impose negative effects on human health and ecosystem functioning. A mechanistic understanding of their combined impacts on soil microbiota is essential due to the profound eCO2 effect on soil biogeochemical processes. In this study, the impacts of Cr2O3 nanoparticles (nano-Cr2O3) on the activity, structure and co-occurrence networks of bacterial communities under ambient and eCO2 were compared between a clay loam and a sandy loam soil. We showed that eCO2 substantially mitigated nano-Cr2O3 toxicity, with microbial biomass, enzyme activity and bacterial alpha-diversity in clay loam soil were much higher than those in sandy loam soil. Nano-Cr2O3 addition caused an increase in alpha-diversity except for clay loam soil samples under eCO2. 16S rRNA gene profiling data found eCO2 remarkably reduced community divergences induced by nano-Cr2O3 more efficiently in clay loam soil (P < 0.05). Network analyses revealed more complex co-occurrence network architectures in clay loam soil than in sandy loam soil, however, nano-Cr2O3 decreased but eCO2 increased modularity and network complexity. Rising CO2 favoured the growth of oligotrophic (Acidobacteriaceae, Bryobacteraceae) rather than the copiotrophic bacteria (Sphingomonadaceae, Caulobacteraceae, Bacteroidaceae), which may contribute to community recovery and increase available carbon utilization efficiency. Our results suggested that the degree to which eCO2 mitigates nano-Cr2O3 toxicity is soil dependent, which could be related to the variation in clay and organic matter content, resilience of the resistant bacterial taxa, and microbial network complexity in distinct soils.
