Summary/Abstract: A case study of the microbial coenosis status of the soil of meadow ecosystem at different distances from the railway track was carried out in the urbansettlement Velykyi Bereznyi in the Transcarpathian Region. The increasing technogenic pollution causes changes in the complex of microbiological indices, brings about qualitative and quantitative changes in the functioning of microbial cenosis of the soil. That has a negative impact on its potential fertility, and raises phytotoxic levels in soils. The results show that soils phytotoxic hyperactivity of ecosystems along the mainline correlates with the quantity of actinomycetes, coliforms, oligonitrophilc and cryptogamous microorgamisms.
