“…These pollutants can affect soil physical characteristics like soil texture and structural status, compaction, saturated hydraulic conductivity, and penetration resistance (Hreniuc et al, 2015). When released on the surface soil, petroleum hydrocarbons, with a specific physico-chemical characteristics (Zahed et al, 2010) pushes soil toward a condition undesirable for proper and sustainable growth of plant and rhizosphere organisms activity (Gaskin and Bentham, 2010;Masakorala et al, 2014). Sources of spreading hydrocarbons also include storage tanks leakage, which only in 1994 was estimated to be around 250,000 numbers in the USA (Buswell, 1994).…”

“…The majority of studies report an increase in microbes within planted soil across a range of contamination levels, relative to unplanted soil (Siciliano et al, 2003;Chiapusio et al, 2007;Gaskin et al, 2008;Gaskin and Bentham 2010;Barrutia et al, 2011) and comparatively few studies report no difference (Radwan et al, 1998;Kudjo Dzantor et al, 2000;Chaiapusio et al, 2007;Cofield et al, 2007). However, an increase in culturable microbial populations in planted soils was only seen at low concentrations of TPH in this study.…”

“…Exposure to such compounds for prolong periods can cause the distortions of soil texture, saturated hydraulic conductivity, porosity and compaction in addition to creating a generally unsuitable environment for the growth of biological life [14][15].…”
