Ralstonia is also an endophyte of Anthurium , Brassica juncia , Geranium , Gerbera , Heliconia , Mimosa , Salvia , sunflower, tobacco, Verbena , and Zinnia , which are also used for phytoremediation of sites contaminated with inorganic and organic pollutants (Ikeura et al, ; Kabra, Khandare, Kurade, & Govindwar, ; Liu, Xin, & Zhou, ; Madera‐Parra, Peña‐Salamanca, Pena, Rousseau, & Lens, ; Mahdieh, Yazdani, & Mahdieh, ). For example, R. eutropha was effective in combination with sunflower ( Helianthus ) for phytoremediation of sites contaminated with Cd and Zn (Marques, Moreira, Franco, Rangel, & Castro, ), with maize for phytoremediation of sites contaminated with Cd (Moreira, Marques, Franco, Rangel, & Castro, ), and with Juncus acutus for biotransformation of Cr(VI) (Dimitroula et al, ).…”
