Abstract
The present work investigates various aspects of heavy metal pollution of the soil-water-system of the shrub Arthrocenemum macrostachyum naturally grown in lake Manzala environment. The major target was to select the autochthonous microorganisms able to tolerate and absorb the heavy metals persistent in the plant-soil-water environment of the shrub A. macrostachyum naturally grown in Manzalla Lake area. This work was structured in three stages: 1) Assessment of heavy metal contamination and tolerant bacteria associated with the halophyte Arthrocnemum macrostachyum in Lake Manzala, Egypt, 2) Bioaccumulation of chromium by autochthonous bacteria associated with the heavy metal- resistant halophyte Arthrocnemum macrostachyum and 3) Efficiency and kinetics of copper and zinc biosorption by Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella grimontii associated with A. macrostachyum indigenous to Lake Manzala environment.
