Phytostabilisation can benefit from phytostimulatory rhizobacteria. Forty-three bacterial strains were isolated from the roots of the metallicolous legume Anthyllis vulneraria ssp. carpatica grown in a highly contaminated mine tailing (total Cd, Pb and Zn were up to 1200; 34,000; and 170,000 mg kg⁻¹, respectively). We aimed at evaluating their phyt...
Genista saharae is an indigenous shrub legume that spontaneously grows in the northeastern Algerian Sahara. It is known for efficient dune fixation and soil preservation against desertification, due to its drought tolerance and its contribution to sustainable nitrogen resources implemented by biological N2-fixation. In this study, the root nodule b...
Background and aims
The association of the legume Anthyllis vulneraria and the grass Festuca arvernensis, was found to be very efficient for the phytostabilisation of highly multi-metal contaminated mine tailings. Our objective was to quantify the contribution of Anthyllis inoculated with its symbiotic bacteria Mesorhizobium metallidurans to the so...
Aims
This work examines Zn accumulation in four Anthyllis vulneraria subspecies supplemented with mineral nitrogen or grown in the presence of their symbiotic bacteria.
Methods
Anthyllis vulneraria subspecies were grown hydroponically in the presence of high levels of ZnSO4. The plants were either grown in symbiosis with one of two non-metallicolou...
Restoration of metalliferous mine soils requires using plant species tolerant to high metal concentrations and adapted to nutrient‐poor soil. Legumes can increase plant productivity through N2‐fixation, but they are often scarce in metalliferous sites. We examined survival, growth, and tolerance of four populations of a legume, Anthyllis vulneraria...
8 Tolérance de la luzerne Medicago orbicularis à la contamination métallique et influence des bactéries symbiotiques isolées de l'ancien site minier de Fej El Hdoum RÉSUMÉ Le travail présenté a pour objectif d'étudier la tolérance à de fortes teneurs en métaux dans le substrat de culture d'une luzerne annuelle, Medicago orbicularis, présente sponta...
The plant Anthyllis vulneraria has been identified in mine tailings and the aim of this study is to determine the mechanisms developed by the plant and its symbiotic association Mesorhizobium metallidurans to tolerate Cd. We particulary intend to determine the distribution and speciation of Cd in plant using a combination of µXRF (X -ray fluorescen...
