A review and meta-analysis of the efficacy of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in remediating toxic metals in mine-affected soils (2025)
Journal Article
Banerjee, S., Mandal, J., Sarkar, D., Datta, R., & Bhattacharyya, P. (2025). A review and meta-analysis of the efficacy of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in remediating toxic metals in mine-affected soils. Frontiers in Environmental Science, 12, 1532169. https://doi.org/10.3389/fenvs.2024.1532169

Mines are natural reservoirs of various minerals, metals, and metalloids. Several heavy metals (HMs), such as Pb, Cd, Cr, Cu, and Ni, are major anthropogenic pollutants that cause severe environmental pollution. The accumulation of these toxic HMs in...
