Microbial community structure and biomass of a mine soil with different organic and inorganic treatments and native plants

Heavy metals far in excess of trace amounts that are required for healthy plant growth, cause harmful effects on soil microorganisms; however, studies concerning the characterization of microbial communities in mine soils are scarce. The present study is the first attempt to characterize, by means o...
