This study investigated the microbial diversity inhabiting roots (rhizosphere) of macrophytes thriving along Blesbokspruit wetland, South Africa's least conserved Ramsar site. The wetland suffers from decades pollution mining wastewater, agriculture, and sewage. current focused on three macrophytes: Phragmites australis (common reed), Typha capensis (bulrush), Eichhornia crassipes (water hyacinth). results revealed a greater abundance microbes (Bacteria Fungi) associated with free-floating E. compared to P. T. capensis. Furthermore, correlation between metals, showed strong fungal communities metals such as nickel (Ni) arsenic (As), while bacterial correlated more lead (Pb) chromium (Cr). functional analysis predicted by PICRUSt2 identified genes related xenobiotic degradation, suggesting potential these break down pollutants. Moreover, specific groups - Proteobacteria, Verrucomicrobia, Cyanobacteria, Bacteroidetes were linked this degradation pathway. These findings suggest promising avenue for microbe-assisted phytoremediation, technique that utilizes plants their decontaminate polluted environments.
