Researchers studied a special bacterium found in rare earth mining tailings that can remove harmful cadmium and reduce sulfate contamination. By optimizing growing conditions like temperature, pH, and food sources, they found the bacterium could remove over 95% of cadmium and reduce sulfate levels significantly. This discovery offers a promising environmentally-friendly method to clean up contaminated mining sites.

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal and Trichoderma longibrachiatum Enhance Soil Quality and Improve Microbial Community Structure in Albic Soil Under Straw Return

mycolabadmin

Researchers found that combining two beneficial soil fungi—arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and Trichoderma longibrachiatum—significantly improved poor quality albic soils when straw was returned to fields. The combined treatment increased soil pH, nutrients, and enzyme activity while promoting beneficial bacteria like Sphingomonas. This microbial approach offers farmers a sustainable, environmentally friendly way to restore degraded soils and improve agricultural productivity in regions with challenging soil conditions.
