Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Purpureocillium sp. A5 was isolated and identified from Kandelia candel roots.
- Intervention effect Adding the fungus protected K. candel growth under Cu stress.
- Intervention effect Purpureocillium sp. A5 changed soil pH characterization.
- Intervention effect A5 increased soil Cu complex concentration.
- Intervention effect A5 enhanced carbonate-bound, Mn-Fe complex and organic-bound Cu concentrations in soil.
- Intervention effect Cu ion was significantly reduced among A5-treated plants.
- Recommendation The authors propose endophytes as promising for environmental remediation.
- Mechanism The endophyte findings may partially explain mangrove ecosystems' large capacity to retain heavy metals.
