			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rehabilitation of an abandoned mine waste site in the Philippines has been assisted by inoculating trees with commercial mycorrhizal inoculum. The article <a href="http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=531910&amp;publicationSubCategoryId=77" target="_blank">Fungi can rehabilitate barren mine waste dumpsite &#8211; study</a> by Rudy A. Fernandez appears in The Philippine Star.</p>
<p>The title might be a bit misleading since the fungi aren&#8217;t doing the remediation all by themselves:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">To rehabilitate the dump area, the team established a plantation of nitrogen-fixing trees and used the fungi Mycorrhiza, which are known for their extraordinary capacity for growing and surviving stress periods.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.fastonline.org/CD3WD_40/CD3WD/AGRIC/II07SE/EN/B1456_19.HTM" target="_blank">biofertilizer</a> inocula used are called Mycogroe and Mykovam, which are both apparently products of the <a href="http://old.uplb.edu.ph/biotech/products#mgro" target="_blank">University of the Philippines Los Banos</a>. Not to be confused with <a href="http://www.fungi.com/mycogrow/index.html" target="_blank">MycoGrow</a>, which is offered by Fungi Perfecti.</p>
