({C}i{L}) was used here in phytoremediation of mining soils. {O}ur work evaluated the effect of {AMF} (i) on the growth and (ii) on the uptake of heavy metals ({HM}). {T}he tests were conducted in the greenhouse on mining substrates collected from the {K}ettara mine ({M}orocco). {T}he mine soil was amended by different proportions of agricultural soil and compost and then inoculated with two isolates of {AMF} ({IN}1) and ({IN}2) of different origins. {A}fter six months of culture, the results show that on mining soils (100%) only {AMF} ({IN}2) was able to colonize the roots of {C}i{L} with a frequency of 40 +/- 7% and an intensity of 6.5 +/- 1.5%. {A}lso, the lowest values of shoot and root dry biomass are obtained on these mining soils with respectively 0.30g and 0.27g. {I}n contrast, the accumulation of {HM} was higher and reached more than 50% of that contained in the mining soils, the highest values with 138mg kg(-1) {C}u2+, {Z}n2+ 270mg kg(-1) and 1.38mg kg(-1) {C}d was recorded. {T}hese results indicate that the colonization of {C}i{L} roots by {AMF} ({IN}2) could significantly improve its potential to be used in phytoremediation of polluted soil.}, keywords = {{C}anna indica {L} ({C}i{L}) ; {A}rbuscular {M}ycorrhizal {F}ungi ({AMF}) ; heavy metals ; {K}ettara mine ; {M}orocco ; {MAROC}}, booktitle = {}, journal = {{I}nternational {J}ournal of {P}hytoremediation}, volume = {17}, numero = {5}, pages = {503--513}, ISSN = {1522-6514}, year = {2015}, DOI = {10.1080/15226514.2014.950408}, URL = {https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010063606}, }
