Rapid industrialization, modern agricultural practices and other anthropogenic activities add
a significant quantity of toxic heavy metals into the environment, which induces severe toxic …

The application of biochars for the remediation of water and soils contaminated with
potentially toxic elements (PTEs) has seen a recent growing interest. The mechanisms of …

This review summarizes the recent papers published about the microbial communities under
the conditions of persistent heavy metals around the world. Many microbial communities' …

Biochar can be effective in immobilizing soil cadmium (Cd), but the difference in its
immobilization mechanisms for different levels of Cd-contaminated soils was overlooked. In …

Food is the major cadmium (Cd)-exposure pathway from agricultural soils to humans and
other living entities and must be reduced in an effective way. A plant can select beneficial …

Successful in situ phytoremediation depends on beneficial interactions between roots and
microbes. However, the assembly strategies of root-associated microbiome during …

The increasing contamination of heavy metals in agricultural soils and its impact on the
nitrogen (N) cycle and N use efficiency have attracted considerable attention in recent years …

Aquatic macrophytes have been widely employed for in-situ phytoremediation of cadmium
(Cd) polluted sediments. But, little is known about the responses of rhizosphere bacteria and …

The homeostasis regulating mechanism of endophyte enhancing cadmium (Cd) extraction
by hyperaccumulator is poorly understood. Here, an endophyte strain E3 that belonged to …

Cadmium accumulation in rice grains is highly dependent on its bioavailability that affected
by various physicochemical properties and microbiological processes of soil. The …
