Heavy metal uptake by arbuscular mycorrhizas of Elsholtzia splendens and the potential for phytoremediation of contaminated soil (2005, background): “Therefore, AM fungi may be potential biotechnological tools for enhancing phytoremediation of HM-contaminated soils (see review by Gaur and Adholeya, 2004).”
The application of an organic amendment modifies the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities colonizing native seedlings grown in a heavy-metal-polluted soil (2011, background): “It has been reported that different AMF ecotypes can confer differing degrees of metal tolerance to their host plant (Del Val et al., 1999; Gaur and Adholeya, 2004; Zarei et al., 2008; Khade and Adholeya, 2009) and that AM fungal species differ in their capacity to affect heavy metal uptake by plant”
Contribution of the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis to heavy metal phytoremediation (2006, background): “Enhanced metal tolerance of mycorrhizal plants has been frequently observed (Gaur and Adholeya 2004).”
Mycorrhiza and phosphate protection of tropical grass species against heavy metal toxicity in multi-contaminated soil (2008, background): “The AM fungi are of widespread occurrence, being found even in soils heavily contaminated by heavy metals (Gaur and Adholeya 2004), and for this they might be used for land rehabilitation (Shetty et al.”
Arbuscular mycorrhizal networks: process and functions. A review (2010, background): “), water relations, pathogenic resistance, phytohormone production, contribution to soil aggregation, amelioration of soil structure, and thus improved success of all kinds of bioremediation (Jeffries et al., 2003; Gaur and Adholeya, 2004).”
Hidden fungi, emergent properties: endophytes and microbiomes. (2011, background): “Phytoremediation enhancement could be a result of improvement in nutrition, protection against pathogens or direct degradation or accumulation of heavy metals in specific structures (56, 159).”
Biotechnological advances in bioremediation of heavy metals contaminated ecosystems: an overview with special reference to phytoremediation (2014, background): “There have been some reports that AM fungi can improve plant tolerance or attenuate heavy metal stress or enhance plant growth under metal contaminations (Gaur and Adholeya 2004; Wang et al. 2005).”
Microalgae - A promising tool for heavy metal remediation. (2015, unknown): “Cd, Pb, and Hg) (Gaur and Adholeya, 2004).”
Phytoextraction of heavy metals by two Salicaceae clones in symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi during the second year of a field trial (2010, background): “A practice that could enhance phytoextraction efficiency is the inoculation of plant roots with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi ( Gaur and Adholeya 2004; Gohre and Paszkowski 2006 ;K han 2005 ;L eyval et al.1997).”
Phytoremediation of Metal-Polluted Soils by Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (2012, background): “, 1997; Turnau and Mesjasz-Przybylowics, 2003) and some Pteridophytes (Gaur and Adholeya, 2004).”
Effects of Interactions Between Cadmium and Lead on Growth, Nitrogen Fixation, Phytochelatin, and Glutathione Production in Mycorrhizal Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp. (2011, background): “They are reported to be present on the roots of plants growing on heavy-metal-contaminated soils and play an important role in metal tolerance and accumulation (Pawlowska and others 1996; Del Val and others 1999; Hildebrandt and others 1999; Gaur and Adholeya 2004; Andrade and others 2005).”
