<b>EDTA-induced phytoextraction of lead and barium by brachiaria (<i>B. decumbens</i> cv. Basilisk) in soil contaminated by oil exploration drilling waste

The phytoextraction of heavy metals using chelating agents has been widely studied for the remediation of contaminated soils. To evaluate the efficiency of EDTA-induced phytoextraction of Ba and Pb using Brachiaria decumbens for the remediation of soil contaminated by oil well drilling and explorati...
