Fungal community remediate quartz tailings soil under plant combined with urban sludge treatments.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Tailings can cause extensive damage to soil structure and microbial community. Phytoremediation is an effective strategy for remedied tailings soil due to its environmentally friendly and low-cost advantage. Fungi play a crucial role in nutrient cycling, stress resistance, stabilizing soil structure, and promoting plant growth. However, the fungal community variation in phytoremediation remains largely unexplored.

Methods

We analyzed soil fungal community based on high-throughput sequencing during three plant species combined with urban sludge to remediate quartz tailings soil.

Results

The results indicated that the fungal diversity was significantly increased with plant diversity, and the highest fungal diversity was in the three plant species combinatio
