Effects of the microbial community in the establishment of Baccharis linearis plants in non-irradiated or irradiated tailing substrates. Plantlets were transferred to non-irradiated (grey bars) or irradiated (black bars) tailing substrates six weeks after sowing and plant growth parameters (A) height; (B) leaf area; (C) green dry biomass and (D) number of green leaves, were measured 18 weeks after transplantation. Bars represent average ± SE (24 replicates per treatment). Asterisks indicate significant differences according to a one-way ANOVA (for parametric data) or to a Kruskal–Wallis test (for non-parametric data) considering irradiation as factor; *p < 0.05 **p < 0.01. (E). Representative plants grown on each treatment are shown, bars indicate 1 cm.
