The interactive effects of elevated atmospheric CO₂ and nanoparticles (NPs) on the structure and function of soil bacterial community remain unknown. Here we compared the impacts of CeO₂ (nCeO₂) and Cr₂O₃ (nCr₂O₃) nanoparticles on the taxonomic compositions and functional attributes of bacterial communities under elevated CO₂ (eCO₂). The stimulated enzyme activities (dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase and urease), increased microbial biomass carbon (MBC), and higher bacterial alpha-diversity were observed under the combined effects of eCO₂ and NPs compared to the single NP treatment, indicating eCO₂ could mitigate the adverse effect of NPs on soil microorganisms. NPs and eCO₂ are important factors influencing the alpha- and beta-diversity (17% and 18% of variations were explained) as well as functional profile (20% and 26% of variations were explained) of bacterial communities. Rising CO₂ level promoted the resilience of NP-resistant bacterial populations, primarily the members of Alphaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria and Bacteroidia, which are also characterized by the fast carbon use capability. Moreover, the significantly (P < 0.05) higher metabolic quotient (qCO₂), reduced available carbon and overrepresented carbon metabolism genes at eCO₂vs. ambient CO₂ (aCO₂) indicate the acceleration of available carbon turnover in NP-exposed soils. Correlation analysis revealed that mitigation of NPs toxicity by eCO₂ could be attributed to the remarkable decline of bioavailable metals disassociated from NPs and available carbon level, as well as promotion of the rapid carbon-metabolizing microbes. Our study pointed out the positive role of eCO₂ in alleviating the adverse effect of NPs on microbiological soil environment, and results can serve as important basis in establishing guidelines for lowering the ecotoxicity of NPs.
