L. camara endophytes increased As accumulation and translocation in S. nigrum. S. nigrum plants were grown in presence or absence of 25 ppm As, treated with or without the endophytes. (A–C) As concentration was measured in root and shoot by ICP-OES. As concentration in plant root (A) and shoot (B), and translocation factor (shoot As/root As) (C) have been plotted. n = 6. Data are represented as mean ± SEM. Bars with different letters indicate significant differences amongst different endophytic isolates obtained from one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test.
