FITORREMEDIACIÓN DE UN SUELO CONTAMINADO CON PETRÓLEO EXTRA PESADO CON Megathyrsus maximus
Soil contamination by petroleum is an environmental problem and phytoremediation has proved to be a promising method for treating such soils. However, selection of species for use in phytoremediation is a key factor for its successful application. The aim of this study was to investigate the phytoremediation potential of the grass Megathyrsus maximus
