Meta-analysis enables prediction of the maximum permissible arsenic concentration in Asian paddy soil (2021)
Journal Article

It is now well-established that not just drinking water, but irrigation water contaminated with arsenic (As) is an important source of human As exposure through water-soil-rice transfer. While drinking water As has a permissible, or guideline value,... Read More about Meta-analysis enables prediction of the maximum permissible arsenic concentration in Asian paddy soil.

Fungal microbiomes are determined by host phylogeny and exhibit widespread associations with the bacterial microbiome (2021)
Journal Article

Interactions between hosts and their resident microbial communities are a fundamental component of fitness for both agents. Though recent research has highlighted the importance of interactions between animals and their bacterial communities, compara...

Wildfires in the Chornobyl exclusion zone—Risks and consequences (2021)
Journal Article

Following the 1986 Chornobyl accident an area of approaching 5000 km2 surrounding the nuclear plant was abandoned, creating the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ). Whilst this area likely contains the most radioactive terrestrial ecosystem on earth, over... Read More about Wildfires in the Chornobyl exclusion zone—Risks and consequences.

Impacts of radiation exposure on the bacterial and fungal microbiome of small mammals in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone (2021)
Journal Article

Environmental impacts of the 1986 Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident are much debated, but the effects of radiation on host microbiomes have received little attention to date.

We present the first analysis of small mammal gut microbiome from t... Read More about Impacts of radiation exposure on the bacterial and fungal microbiome of small mammals in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.

Inter-varietal variation in elemental uptake by rice and its implications for public health : a case study of Dareta village, Zamfara State, Nigeria (2021)
Thesis

Nigeria is ranked first among the countries affected by Pb poisoning since it was reported in 2010 in
Zamfara State. The Pb poisoning epidemic in Zamfara received global attention from various
stakeholders and dietary Pb intake through rice which w... Read More about Inter-varietal variation in elemental uptake by rice and its implications for public health : a case study of Dareta village, Zamfara State, Nigeria.
