Project description:Pteris cretica L var. nervosa is one of the dominent fern species at antimony mining area where arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi can be found as a symbiosis. The effect of AMF on fern exposed to long-term excessive Sb was pooly understood. The project applied this fern co-cultivting with or withour AMF under different concentration of Sb in soil for charicterising Sb phytomediation ability of it along with the effect by AMF symbiosis.
