Mycorrhizal bioremediation

Mycorrhizal amelioration of heavy metals or pollutants is a process by which mycorrhizal fungi in a mutualistic relationship with plants can sequester toxic compounds from the environment, as a form of bioremediation. == Mycorrhizae-plant partners == These symbiotic relationships are generally between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizae in the Glomeromycota clade of fungi.
