Journal: Science of the Total Environment

  • An endophyte-assisted phytoextraction study was performed
  • N. caerulescens and R. acetosa grew more and extracted more Zn when grown together
  • Inoculation of the endophytes improved plant physiological status
  • Plant growth and endophyte inoculation enhanced ecosystem services
