【 摘 要 】

The remediation potentials of diesel oil by two white rot fungi(Basidiomycota; Hymenomycetes) Heterobasidion annosum13.12B and Resinicium bicolorwere tested in two artificially contaminated experimental matrices: Norkran’s liquidmedium and Insch - Pitcaple soil collected from Aberdeen, United Kingdom. Gravimetricmeasurements showed reductions in the weight of the hydrocarbon extract from soilinoculated with H. annosum 13.12B and R. bicolor. The reduction in diesel extract wasobserved to be higher in the treatments with H. annosum 13.12B compare with othertreatments in soil microcosm amended with 3.5 and 7 % diesel oil. Significant increase inextractable hydrocarbon was detected in Norkran’s liquid medium amended with 1 and 3.5% diesel oil. These results showed that white rot fungi could be harnessed to remediate soilcontaminated with diesel oil in the field.
