Inferring the perennial biomass and phytoremediation potential of thirty-one woody species from large phytomanagement field trials

Growing woody biomass on trace element-contaminated marginal lands is a promising phytomanagement strategy, provided that species combine high productivity with appropriate contaminant accumulation profiles. In this study, we evaluated the five-year field performance and phytoman...

Comparative study of the effects of different carbon substrates on acidification-driven mineral weathering by Pseudomonas

ABSTRACT While carbon sources released by plant roots and fungi are known to favor the enrichment of mineral weathering (MWe) bacteria, their impact on MWe activity remains poorly understood. The relationships among bacterial MWe ability, metabolism, and carbon source utilization...
