Abstract

Soil degradation advances due to pollution, excessive use of agrochemicals and the elimination of sustainable practices, deteriorating biodiversity and essential ecological functions. Considering this, mycorrhizae are a very important natural resource in soil restoration since they contribute to the uptake of nutrients, to the establishment of microbial communities and the maintenance of soil structure, in addition to mitigating the toxicity of heavy metals through their immobilization, however, it is not very present in environmental policies.
