Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) has important environmental implications in tailings by
providing bioavailable nitrogen to these habitats and sustaining ecosystem functions …

As (III) oxidation-dependent biological nitrogen fixing (As-dependent BNF) bacteria use a
novel biogeochemical process observed in tailings recently. However, our understanding of …

Primary succession in mine tailings is a prerequisite for tailing vegetation. Microorganisms,
including bacteria, fungi, and protists, play an important role in this process in the driving …

A nitrogen (N) deficiency will usually hinder bioremediation efforts in mining-derived habitats
such as occurring in mining regions. Diazotrophs can provide N to support the growth of …

Nitrogen (N) shortage poses a great challenge to the implementation of in situ
bioremediation practices in mining-contaminated sites. Diazotrophs can fix atmospheric N2 …

The beneficial effect of compost and compost tea on plant growth and protection is mainly
associated with the microbial diversity and the presence of bacteria with plant growth …

Quinoa is renowned for its nutritional value and ability to withstand harsh environmental
conditions such as salinity. In the present work, we isolated 34 phosphate solubilizing …

Open mine tailings dams are extreme artificial environments containing sizeable potentially
toxic elements (PTEs), including heavy metals (HMs), transition metals, and metalloids …

Copper mining tailings are characterized by high concentrations of heavy metals and an
acidic pH, conditions that require an extreme adaptation for any organism. Currently, several …

Abstract The Moroccan endemic Vachellia gummifera grows wild under extreme desert
conditions. This plant could be used as an alternative fodder for goats, and camels, in order …
