Isolation and identification of bacteria phytoremediation plant of heliconia psittacorum / Syahirah Naailah Kamarul Baharin

The increasing of environmental damage worldwide had raised concerns to the human populations as the ability for the pollutants to degrade takes a long time which may be partially solved by the emerging phytoremediation technology. This cost-effective plant based approach to remediation takes advant...
