The impacts of long-term polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heavy metal pollution on soil microbial communities functioning were studied in soils taken from an old coke plant. The concentrations of PAHs in the tested soils ranged from 171 to 2137 mg kg^-1. From the group of tested heavy metals, concentrations of lead were found to be the highest, ranging from 57 to 3478 mg kg^-1, while zinc concentrations varied from 247 to 704 mg kg^-1 and nickel from 10 to 666 mg kg^-1. High dehydrogenase, acid and alkaline phosphatase activities were observed in the most contaminated soil. This may indicate bacterial adaptation to long-term heavy metal and hydrocarbon contamination. However, the Community Level Physiological Profiles (CLPPs) analysis showed that the microbial functional diversity was reduced and influenced to a higher extent by some metals (Pb, Ni), moisture and conductivity than by PAHs.

Celem pracy było zbadanie wpływu wieloletniego skażenia gleb metalami ciężkimi oraz wielopierścieniowymi węglowodorami aromatycznymi (WWA) na funkcjonowanie zespołów mikroorganizmów. Do badań pobrano gleby z terenu koksowni, gdzie produkcja koksu trwa od 1884 roku. Stężenia WWA w badanych glebach wahały się w przedziale od 171 do 2137 mg kg^-1. Wśród badanych metali zawartość ołowiu wynosiła od 57 do 3478 mg kg^-1, niklu od 10 do 666 mg kg^-1, a stężenie cynku od 247 do 704 mg kg^-1. W najsilniej skażonej glebie zaobserwowano wysoką aktywność dehydrogenazy, fosfatazy kwaśnej i zasadowej. Wyniki takie mogą wskazywać na adaptację zespołów mikroorganizmów do długoletniego zanieczyszczenia metalami i WWA. Jednocześnie analiza profili fizjologicznych zespołów mikroorganizmów (CLPPs) wykazała obniżenie indeksu bioróżnorodności funkcjonalnej. Zaobserwowano również, że obecność metali (Pb, Ni) oraz parametry glebowe takie jak wilgotności i przewodności wywierały istotniejszy wpływ na bioróżnorodność metaboliczną niż WWA.
