Legume– Rhizobium Symbioses as a Tool for Bioremediation of Heavy Metal Polluted Soils (2011, background): “This is probably the main reason that explains why nodulation and the symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) efficiency of rhizobia decrease in metal-contaminated soils (Broos et al. 2004; Giller et al. 1998).”
Isolation and characterisation of symbiotically effective Rhizobium resistant to arsenic and heavy metals after the toxic spill at the Aznalcóllar pyrite mine (2005, unknown): “Whereas an inhibitory effect of heavy metals on N2 fixation was reported in white clover (Broos et al., 2004), a minor inhibitory metal effect on N2 fixation rates are described in pea and bean (Obbard and Jones, 2001).”
