In this study, the metal (loid) fractions in two alkaline iron tailings areas with similar physico-
chemical properties and the enrichment ability of dominant plants in these areas were …

Profound understanding of metabolic capabilities of microorganisms is prerequisite for
effective bioremediation. However, microorganisms in neutral-alkaline soils affected by …

There are few studies on concurrent bacterial and fungal community assembly processes
that govern the metal (loid) s biogeochemical cycles at smelters. Here, a systematic …

Soil samples were collected from a representative arsenic (As) contaminated region under
phytoremediation of hyperaccumulation plants. Relative abundance and diversity of …

Mining and smelting activities are the major sources of antimony (Sb) contamination. The
soil around Xikuangshan (XKS), one of the largest Sb mines in the world, has been …

Metal pollution has raised negative impact on microbes, but little is known about the
distribution and co-occurrence pattern of bacterial, fungal and archaeal communities along …

Mine activities leaked heavy metals into surrounding soil and may affected indigenous
microbial communities. In the present study, the diversity and composition of the bacterial …

As a global pollution problem, heavy metal contamination poses a serious hazard to soil
microorganisms which play an extremely important role in soil chemical cycling and …

Phytoremediation technology is an important approach applied to heavy metal remediation,
and how to improve its remediation efficiency is the key. In this study, we compared the …

Acid mine discharge (AMD) has been demonstrated to have significant impacts on microbial
community composition in the surrounding soil environment. However, their effect on …
