This study employed high-throughput sequencing technology to explore the soil physical and chemical properties, soil enzyme activity, and the diversity, community structure and function of soil fungi in tobacco fields following root irrigation with metalaxyl-M and hymexazol. The results revealed that ammonium nitrogen (NH₄⁺-N), nitrate nitrogen (NO₃^--N), soil organic matter (SOM), electrical conductivity (EC) and soil urease (UE) in soil were significantly increased and the pH decreased after root-irrigation with these two fungicides. The abundance of soil fungal community was significantly reduced after the root-irrigation of metalaxyl-M and hymexazol. The relative abundance of Ascomycota increased significantly after the treatment with metalaxyl-M. Following hymexazol treatment, the abundance of Achroiostachys, Nigrospora, Ustilaginoidea, and Trichoderma significantly decreased. Functional prediction analysis indicated an increase in the relative abundance of functional genes of saprophytic fungi after treatment with both fungicides.

The results regarding the material properties demonstrated that ZnO-R enhances CB removal performance due to its unique rod shape, which extends light absorption and improves electron-hole separation. The removal rates of the carbaryl pesticide from the aqueous solution using ZnO-R and ZnO-C were 98.2% and 87.3%, respectively.

The degradation rates of CB using ZnO-R in wastewater were 99.8%, 68.2%, and 21.7% under UV, solar, and visible light, respectively.
