Garlic (Allium sativum) based interplanting alters the heavy metals absorption and bacterial diversity in neighboring plants

Abstract Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements that have a high atomic weight and let out in the environment by agriculture, industry, mining and therapeutic expertise and thrilling amassing of these elements pollutes the environment. In this study we have investigated the potential of garli...
