Inoculation of endophytic bacteria has been accepted as a promising technique to assist phytostabilization of heavy metal-contaminated soils. This study investigated the effects of inoculating a bacterial strain closely related to Pseudomonas pyschrophila on the plant growth, and phytostabilization of fast-growing trees Acacia mangium and Eucalyptus camaldulensis, growing on artificial spiked soil with Pb up to 1500 mg/kg. After 60 days, the results showed that the strain closely related to P. pyschrophila slightly increased Pb bioavailability and Pb uptake by A. mangium, compared to non-inoculated controls. It slightly reduced Pb bioavailability in soil, but it did not affect the Pb uptake by E. camaldulensis, compared to non-inoculated controls. Interestingly, it was able to significantly increase Pb content in shoots by 3.07-fold in A. mangium and 2.95-fold in E. camaldulensis, compared to non-inoculated controls. Although the inoculation of the strain closely related to P. pyschrophila slightly increased the translocation factor (TF) of Pb in both tree species, their TF values were less than 1. This indicates that plants associated with the strain closely related to P. pyschrophila are suitable for phytostabilization of A. mangium, which may be used for cleaning up Pb contaminated sites. This strain displayed different influences on plant species and was found not suitable for phytostabilization of E. camaldulensis.

Leguminous trees have a potential for phytoremediation of oil-contaminated areas for its symbiotic association with nitrogen-fixing bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). This study selects leguminous tree associated with symbiotic microorganisms that have the potential to remediate petroleum-contaminated soil. Seven species of trees were tested: Acacia angustissima, Acacia auriculiformis, Acacia holosericea, Acacia mangium, Mimosa artemisiana, Mimosa caesalpiniifolia, and Samanea saman. They were inoculated with AMF mix and nitrogen-fixing bacteria mix and cultivated over five oil levels in soils, with five replicates. The decreasing of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) values occurred especially with S. saman and its symbiotic microorganisms on highest oil soil contamination. Despite the large growth of A. angustissima and M. caesalpiniifolia on the highest level of oil, these species and its inoculated microorganisms did not reduce the soil TPH. Both plants were hydrocarbon tolerant but not able to remediate the polluted soil. In contrast were significative hydrocarbon decrease with M. artemisiana under high oil concentrations, but plant growth was severely affected. Results suggest that the ability of the plants to decrease the soil concentration of TPH is not directly related to its growth and adaptation to conditions of contamination, but the success of the association between plants and its symbionts that seem to play a critical role on remediation efficiency.

Atmospheric N deposition is a serious problem in subtropical China where N is present in large amounts but P is deficient. Several studies hypothesized that N₂ fixers can overcome phosphorus limitation by trading fixed N₂ for soil phosphorus. In order to know whether N₂ fixers could invest fixed N₂ in extracellular phosphatase production and could stimulate arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) to acquire soil P in N-rich subtropical China, an open-air greenhouse experiment was carried out. Two N₂ fixers (Acacia mangium and Ormosia pinnata) and two non-N₂ fixers (Schima superba and Pinus massoniana) were exposed to three levels of N addition: 5.6 kg ha⁻¹ a⁻¹ (ambient N), 15.6 kg ha⁻¹ a⁻¹ (middle N), and 20.6 kg ha⁻¹ a⁻¹ (high N). We found that the capacity of plants to acquire soil P in N-rich subtropical China is species specific. The higher P uptake rates were found for N₂ fixers than non-N₂ fixers under N addition, which were related to the greater soil APA and higher AMF (p < 0.01) in the soil of N₂ fixers. However, with time, high N addition decreased more significant quantities of soil microbial phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs) in the soil of N₂ fixers than that of non-N₂ fixers (p < 0.05). We conclude that N₂ fixers have higher P uptake capacity than non-N₂ fixers under ambient N deposition in subtropical China. However, continuing N deposition in the future might affect P uptake ability of N₂ fixers as high N addition would decrease soil microbial PLFAs of N₂ fixers.
