Abstract The pollution of plastics and microplastics in the soil environment attracted lots of attentions in recent years. This paper reviewed the latest research progresses on the interaction between microorganisms and soil plastics. The main contents included, (i) the source and migration of soil plastics and their basic characteristics of long-term storage forms in the soil; (ii) the impacts of soil microorganism on plastics; (iii) the impacts of plastic pollution on soil microbiota, enzyme activities, animals and crop production, and the potential impact on the function of global terrestrial ecosystems. Finally, the future research directions on plastics and microplastics pollution were discussed, topics range from functional microorganisms, experimental design, plastisphere, large-scale and long-term studies on plastics and soil microorganisms. This review provided valuable references for understanding and solving plastic pollution in soil from a microbiological perspective.
