Abstract:
This project used Mycorrhizal inoculated soybean plants as a means
of phytoremediation in the Alberta Oil sands. The plants were grown in
tailing sands soil, to determine if the mycorrhizal addition allowed
growth in the barren soil, and remediation of the hydrocarbons in the
soil. The addition of the mycorrhizal fungus increased the growth in the
soybean plants allowing them to remediate the soil
