Abstract

Soil microbial community is not significantly shaped by alkane concentrations

Alkane concentrations alter dominant alkane degraders in soils

Different alkanes are preferentially degraded at different contamination level

Different types of alkane monooxygenase genes responsible for alkane degradation
