    A new assay of bacterial selection with Pb reveals an unexpected effect of Pb on bacterial behavior: implications for remediation

    Soil pollution by lead (Pb) is a major health concern due to Pb toxicity. Phytoextraction could remove Pb, but this technique is limited by the low Pb mobility in soils. Pb mobility can be increased by bioaugm...

    Bacterial and fungal communities vary with the type of organic substrate: implications for biocontrol of soilless crops

    Biocontrol strategies using organic substrates such as wood fibers and biocontrol agents such as Trichoderma are currently developed to control soil pathogens such as Fusarium oxysporum. Nonetheless, such biocont...
