Biobeds for environmental protection from pesticide use--a review.
TL;DR: The state of the art of biobeds and similar systems in Sweden and worldwide are presented and future research needs are identified and factors affecting the efficiency ofbiobeds in terms of degradation and retention of pesticides are discussed.

Long-term impact of fertilization on activity and composition of bacterial communities and metabolic guilds in agricultural soil
TL;DR: The AOB community composition appeared to be more strongly linked to the activity than the total bacterial communities were, likely explained by physiological differences in the populations present.

Microbial biomass and activities in soil as affected by frozen and cold storage
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the microbial biomass and activities in 12 different, annually frozen, agricultural mineral soils when fresh and when stored at +2±2°C and at −20 ± 2°C for 1, 3, 6 and 13 months.

Laboratory and lysimeter studies of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid in a sand and a clay soil.
TL;DR: The kinetics of AMPA residues suggest that although aminomethylphosphonic acid is always more persistent than glyphosate when formed from glyphosate, its degradation rate can be faster than that of glyphosate, and the sarcosine pathway can be just as significant.

Degradation of glyphosate and other pesticides by ligninolytic enzymes.
TL;DR: The results highlight the potential of ligninolytic enzymes to degrade pesticides and suggest that the formation of AMPA, the main metabolite of glyphosate degradation found in soils, can be a result of the activity oflignin-degrading enzymes.
