The health risks of lead-zinc (Pb–Zn) tailings from heavy metal (HMs) contamination have
been gaining increasing public concern. The dispersal of HMs from tailings poses a …

The growing loss of soil functionality due to contamination by metal (loid) s, alone or in
combination with organic pollutants, is a global environmental issue that entails major risks …

Abstract Lead-zinc (Pb-Zn) tailings pose a significant environmental threat from heavy
metals (HMs) contamination. Revegetation is considered as a green path for HM …

The plant root-associated microbiomes, including both the rhizosphere and the root
endosphere microbial community, are considered as a critical extension of the plant …

Heavy metal pollution poses a serious hazard to the soil bacterial community. The purpose
of this study is to understand the characteristics of soil heavy metal pollution in lead-zinc …

Coastal salt marshes have been significantly suffering degradation worldwide, turning these
wetlands from carbon sink to carbon source. The additions of carbon-rich substrates in …

This study aimed to evaluate whether the improvement in soil conditions induced by the
vegetation spontaneously colonizing abandoned metal (loid) mine tailings from semiarid …

This work studies a set of soil indicators (physical, physico-chemical and biological),
evaluated under field and laboratory conditions, in different stages of spontaneous …

The phytomanagement concept combines a sustainable reduction of pollutant linkages at
risk-assessed contaminated sites with the generation of both valuable biomass for the (bio) …

Invasive plants could play an important role in the restoration of tailings, but their
invasiveness limits their practical application. In this study, the phytoremediation potentials …
