Heavy Metals in Soils and the Remediation Potential of Bacteria Associated With the Plant Microbiome
High concentrations of non-essential heavy metals/metalloids (arsenic, cadmium, and lead) in soils and irrigation water represent a threat to the environment, food safety, and human and animal health. Microbial bioremediation has emerged as a promising strategy to reduce the concentration of heavy m...
