The objective of this research was to evaluate a soil recovery strategy in soils that were affected by iron mining tailing using herbaceous species inoculated with Acaulospora morrowiae (arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF)). Tailings were collected on the banks of the Gualaxo do Norte river, one of...
