Rhizobia and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are symbiotic microorganisms important
for plants grown in nutrient‐deficient and heavy metal‐contaminated soils. However, it …

Aims Our study aimed at characterizing the Zn phytoextraction potential of a metal tolerant
Populus tremula accession in symbiosis with a community of ectomycorrhizal fungi from …

Since heavy metals are toxic to herbivores and pathogens, the Elemental defence
hypothesis suggested that metals accumulated in plants might serve as defence against …

Microorganisms are used to alleviate heavy metal stress in plants cultivated in contaminated
fields. However, the relevant mechanisms have been rarely explored. The goal of this study …

The phytoremedial potential of Ipomoea aquatica and role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
(AMF) during Cadmium uptake was studied under two different soils ie, soil inoculated with …

Soils polluted with heavy metals result into various environmental and ecological tribulations
like alterations in microbial community, deterioration of soil, and induction of metals into the …

Cadmium (Cd), a toxic metal released into agricultural settings induces numerous changes
in plant growth and physiology. The main known mechanisms of Cd toxicity include its …

The effects of Piriformospora indica and Glomus mosseae on some growth and
physiological parameters, and cadmium (Cd) amounts in Triticum aestivum cv. Sardari39 …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi play an important role in plant tolerance of heavy metal
contamination. In this study, a pot experiment was conducted to illustrate the effects of the …
