Ectomycorrhiza

(

• Back to T:TDYK
• Article history

)

• ... that many species of fungi involved in ectomycorrhizas are capable of degrading and mineralizing a variety of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) found in the soil?

• Comment: information concerning hook found in section 6.1, Pollution and Phytoremediation, 5th paragraph.

Created by Ebertar (talk). Self nominated at 03:48, 31 May 2013 (UTC).

• Article meets newness and length requirements, hook is short enough and hook fact verified from cited source. A quick spot check of several sources revealed no issues with close paraphrasing or otherwise. Excellent contribution from a new user! Sasata (talk) 17:54, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
