Table 1 Index of strain diversity (ISD) and Shannon’s diversity index (H’) indices in endophytic bacterial populations of A. halleri and A. arenosa roots (R), rosette leaves (RL), stem leaves (SL), and rhizosphere (RS) of the waste heap Bolesław (BOL) and Bukowno (BUK) origin as well as the reference Bolestraszyce (BCE) area.
