Besides, sulfate input increased MeHg levels (89-240%) in soils with low ambient sulfate levels (380 mg kg-1). These could be explained by the diverse responses of Hg mobility and microbial Hg methylators to sulfate input at different ambient sulfate levels. Our study opens the “black box” of Hg methylation under sulfur input, which would help…[Read more]
