Screening of growth promotional traits of five metal resistant pgpr – possible ...

Influence of Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria in Helianthus annuus (sunflower) g...

Heavy metal accumulation in plant species indigenous to a contaminated portugue...

Phytoremediation is a promising alternative to conventional soil clean-up methods; however, up to date, there is still not enough information on plant species suitable for application in this field of science. Therefore, plant screening on contaminated sites can lead to the identification of further species of interest. In the present study, pedological and botanical characteristics of an industrialised area kn...

Removal of heavy metals using different polymer matrixes as support for bacteri...

Great attention is focused on the microbial treatment of metal contaminated environments. Three bacterial strains, 1C2, 1ZP4 and EC30, belonging to genera Cupriavidus, Sphingobacterium and Alcaligenes, respectively, showing high tolerance to Zn and Cd, up to concentrations of 1000 ppm, were isolated from a contaminated area in Northern Portugal. Their contribution to Zn and Cd removal from aqueous streams using...

Zinc accumulation in plant species from a contaminated Portuguese site

Assessment of the plant growth promotion abilities of six bacterial isolates us...

Zea mays, one of the most important cereals worldwide, is a plant not only with food and energy value, but also with phytoremediation potential. The use of plant growth promoting (PGP) rhizobacteria may constitute a biological alternative to increase crop yield and plant resistance to degraded environments. In search for PGP rhizobacteria strains, 6 bacterial isolates were isolated from a metal contaminated sit...

Arsenic, lead and nickel accumulation in Rubus ulmifolius growing in contaminat...

This work investigates the potential of Rubus ulmifolius, indigenous to ametal contaminated site – Esteiro de Estarreja – for phytoremediation purposes. The site has a long history of metal contamination. The accumulation of lead (Pb), arsenic (As) and nickel (Ni) in different sections – roots, stems and leaves – of the plant was assessed and compared to the levels of those metals in the soil and in the availab...
