Abstract
Soil polycyclic aromatic compound (PAC) pollution as a result of petroleum exploitation has caused serious environmental problems. The unclear assembly and functional patterns of microorganisms in oilfield soils limits the understanding of microbial mechanisms for PAC elimination and health risk reduction. This study investigated the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and substituted PAHs (SPAHs) occurrence, and their impact on the bacteria-archaea-fungi community diversity, co-occurrence network and functionality in the soil of an abandoned oilfield. The results showed that the PAC content in the oilfield ranged from 3429.03 μg kg-1 to 6070.89 μg kg-1, and risk assessment results suggested a potential cancer risk to children and adults. High molecular weight PAHs (98.9%) and SPAHs (1.0%) contributed to 99.9% of the toxic equivalent concentration. For microbial analysis, the abundantly detected degraders and unigenes indicated the microbial potential to mitigate pollutants and reduce health risks. Microbial abundance and diversity were found to be negatively correlated with health risk. The co-occurrence network analysis revealed nonrandom assembly patterns of the interdomain microbial communities, and species in the network exhibited strong positive connections (59%). The network demonstrated strong ecological linkages and was divided into five smaller coherent modules, in which the functional microbes were mainly involved in organic substance and mineral component degradation, biological electron transfer and nutrient cycle processes. The keystone species for maintaining microbial ecological functions included Marinobacter of bacteria and Neocosmospora of fungi. Additionally, benzo [g,h,i]pyrene, dibenz [a,h]anthracene, indeno [1,2,3-cd]perylene and total phosphorus were the key environmental factors driving the assembly and functional patterns of microbial communities under pollution stress. This work improves the knowledge of the functional pattern and environmental adaptation mechanisms of interdomain microbes, and provides valuable guidance for the further bioremediation of PAC-contaminated soils in oilfields.

Abstract
The biotransformation of mercury was monitored in Hymenoscyphus ericae (Read) Korf & Kernan, Neocosmospora vasinfecta E. F. Sm., and Verticillium terrestre (Link) Lindau following the exposure of these fungi to environmentally relevant doses of HgII(HgCl2) in aerated pH-controlled cultures. Mercury applied at 120 and 300 μg·L–1quickly associated with cells of N. vasinfecta. Within 3 h, approximately 80% of the remaining Hg in both treatments had been converted to β-HgS, and at 8 h, 15% and 53% of the original doses had been converted into volatile Hg0. Hymenoscyphus ericae was less efficient at converting HgIIto β-HgS, but it volatilized larger amounts of Hg0. A mercury-tolerant isolate of V. terrestre withstood levels of Hg in the parts per million. When exposed to 270, 1000, or 2000 μg·L–1HgCl2, 93% ± 3% of the amounts remaining in cultures of V. terrestre after 2 h was β-HgS. At 2 mg·L–1, 72% of the Hg was reduced to Hg0in 2 h. Volatilization accounts for the tolerance of V. terrestre to high doses of Hg, whereas the conversion of Hg to β-HgS was the major detoxifying mechanism at lower doses. The formation of β-HgS occurs preferentially with volatilization operating as the default pathway, when the former biotransformation mechanism is saturated.

Abstract
Less than 1% of the estimated number of fungal species have been investigated concerning the transport of low-molecular-weight nutrients and metabolites through the plasma membrane. This is surprising if one considers the importance of the processes at the plasma membrane for the cell: this membrane mediates between the cell and its environment. Concentrating on filamentous fungi, in this review emphasis is placed on relating results from biophysical chemistry, membrane transport, fungal physiology, and fungal ecology. Among the treated subjects are the consequences of the small dimension of hyphae, the habitat and membrane transport, the properties of the plasma membrane, the efflux of metabolites, and the regulation of membrane transport. Special attention is given to methodological problems occurring with filamentous fungi. A great part of the presented material relies on work with Neurospora crassa, because for this fungus the most complete picture of plasma membrane transport exists. Following the conviction that we need "concepts instead of experiments", we delineate the lively network of membrane transport systems rather than listing the properties of single transport systems.
