• Survival strategies of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in Cu-polluted environments (2009, unknown): “On the other hand, under conditions of supraoptimal levels of essential metals, or in the presence of toxic ones, AM fungi are able to alleviate metal toxicity in the plant (Leyval et al. 2002).”
• Microbial co-operation in the rhizosphere. (2005, background): “AM can help phytoremediation activities, particularly in phytostabilization (Goncxalves et al., 1997; Leyval et al., 1997, 2002; Orlowska et al., 2002; Regvar et al., 2003; Turnau et al., 2005).”
• Arbuscular Mycorrhiza — a Key Component of Sustainable Plant-Soil Ecosystems (2012, background): “Most phytoremediation studies concern the heavy metals Zn, Cu, Cd, Pb or N (Leyval et al. 2002; Turnau et al. 2006; Jasper 2007; Maki et al. 2008; Teng et al. 2008; Azcón et al. 2009), but bioremediation of other metals, like arsenic, has also been attempted (Dong et al.”
• Phytoremediation of Metal-Polluted Soils by Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (2012, background): “As such, the metals remain in the soil but because they are less bioavailable, and thus toxicity to other organisms is reduced (Leyval et al., 2002).”
• Remediation of Heavy Metal Contaminated Soils: Phytoremediation as a Potentially Promising Clean-Up Technology (2009, background): “Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi have also been shown to enhance plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses, including the presence of high levels of heavy metals (Leyval et al., 2002): as they are a direct link between soil and roots, they can be very important for heavy metal availability and toxi”
• Role of soil microbes in the rhizospheres of plants growing on trace metal contaminated soils in phytoremediation. (2005, background): “Different mechanisms have been proposed to explain the protective effect of AM and metal stress [77–79].”
• Inoculum of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi for production systems: science meets business (2004, background): “Urgent progress is needed in two different situations where AM fungal technology can be successfully applied in anthropogenically disturbed ecosystems (land reclamation, phytoremediation; Leyval et al. 2002) or for plant biotization (microbial ecology of the rhizosphere; Vestberg et al.”
• Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi as Natural Biofertilizers: Let's Benefit from Past Successes (2016, background): “Some AMF species are commonly recognized to be more stress tolerant than others, and are usually found in stressed and polluted soils (Leyval et al., 2002; Hildebrandt et al., 2007).”
• EFFECTIVENESS OF THE APPLICATION OF ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZA FUNGI AND ORGANIC AMENDMENTS TO IMPROVE SOIL QUALITY AND PLANT PERFORMANCE UNDER STRESS CONDITIONS (2010, background): “…both, on some biochemical values in the contaminated rhizosphere soil (Medina et al., 2006; 2010b) Bioremediation has been defined as the use of microorganisms for the treatment of soil pollution (Leyval et al., 2002) and can be applied in association with different strategies of phytoremediation.”
• Arbuscular mycorrhiza can depress translocation of zinc to shoots of host plants in soils moderately polluted with zinc (2004, background): “The potential of AM fungi for phytoremediation of heavy metal polluted soils has recently been discussed by Leyval et al. (2002) and Turnau and Haselwandter (2002).”
• Arbuscular mycorrhizal networks: process and functions. A review (2010, background): “Numerous studies have revealed that AM fungi confer upon plants tolerance against heavy metal stress (Davies et al., 2001; Levyal et al., 2002; Liao et al., 2003).”
