Northern wild rice (Zizania palustris L.) as a phytoremediation species in eutrophic wetlands - investigation of root-sediment interactions
(2014-01-22)
The causes of anthropogenic eutrophication in water bodies are multi-faceted and multigenerational, presenting an ever increasing need for effective and sustainable solutions.Phytoremediation presents a cost-effective ...
Characterization of an arsenite-oxidizing caballeronia sp. soil bacterium and its mutualistic relationship with trifolium pratense for arsenic remediation
(2021)
The proposed application of the mutualistic interaction between a native arsenicoxidizing soil bacteria and Trifolium pratense in Northwestern Ontario mine sites is a novel
approach to remediation. This thesis studies the ...
Isolation of arsenite-oxidizing bacteria with plant growth promoting characteristics to enhance phytoremediation of arsenic
(2021)
A common strategy for remediation of arsenic is bacterial remediation by oxidation of As(III) to
the less toxic As(V). Another widely accepted technique for arsenic remediation is
phytoremediation however in highly ...
