The acerbic elevation of toxic metal ions in arable lands, enhance the risk of their
accumulation and biomagnification in crops as well as in humans. Phytoremediation is an …

Background: Heavy metals are continuously being mobilized into the biosphere either
through natural mechanisms or through anthropogenic activities. Ectomycorrhizal fungi …

Abstract Background Heavy metals (HMs) phytoremediation is a well-recognized protocol to
remove toxic elements from the soil. As known, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) enhance …

The aim of this experiment was to evaluate the impact of colonization with arbuscular
mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus constrictum on the biomass production, flower quality …

The bioavailability of metals (Cd, Ni, Zn, Cu, Pb and Mn) and abundance of arbuscular
mycorrhiza were studied in a long-term sewage-sludge field trial on an acid sandy soil, at …

At relatively low concentrations, the element manganese (Mn) is essential for plant
metabolism, especially for photosynthesis and as an enzyme antioxidant cofactor. However …

Background Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, which engage a mutualistic symbiosis with
the roots of most plant species, have received much attention for their ability to alleviate …

Mycorrhizal associations, including ericoid, arbuscular and ecto-mycorrhizas, are found
colonising highly metal contaminated soils. How do mycorrhizal fungi achieve metal …

Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) seedlings inoculated or not (NM) by a Zn-sensitive or a Zn-
tolerant isolate of the ectomycorrhizal fungus Suillus bovinus (L. Fr.) Roussel were exposed …

In order to improve knowledge about the role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in the
tolerance to heavy metals in ultramafic soils, the present study investigated the influence of …
