Zusammenfassung:[Display omitted] •Microplastics monitoring data in soil systems are currently insufficient.•Standardized analytical methods for soil microplastics are still lacking.•Microplastics can affect soil physicochemical properties and biota.•Future studies on occurrence and impacts of microplastics in soils are required. The wide and intensive application of plastics and their derived products has resulted in global environmental contamination of plastic waste. Large-sized plastic litter can be fragmented into microplastics (
