Influence of plant-associated microbial communities on heavy metal uptake by the aquatic plant Lemna minor
We present research aimed at determining how bacteria associated with aquatic plants influence phytoextraction of heavy metals. We focused on the aquatic plant Lemna minor and its response to cadmium (Cd) as a model. We studied bacterial communities from plants at a contaminated site, Rice City Pond...
