A Cd-, Pb-, Zn-, Cu-resistant endophytic yeast CBSB78 was isolated from surface-sterilized rape roots. The isolate was identified as Cryptococcus sp. based on the ITS1–5.8S–ITS2 sequence analysis. The strain was resistant to 20 mM Cd²⁺, 20 mM Pb²⁺, 10 mM Zn²⁺, and 7 mM Cu²⁺. The yeast CBSB78 was a low indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) producer and possessed low 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) deaminase activity. Overall, 29.4–244 % of survival rates increased and the dry weight of Brassica alboglabra showed a 41.1 % increase when it was inoculated into the seedlings. The inoculation of CBSB78 could also increase the extraction amounts of Cd, Pb, and Zn by B. alboglabra simultaneously in the multi-metal contaminated soils, which showed the potential to improve extraction efficacy of Cd, Pb, Zn by B. alboglabra seedlings in the field.
