Abstract
⺠We study the PAH biodegradation by autochthonous microorganisms in a polluted soil. ⺠Total PAHs concentrations decreased by 93% in 90 days in sunflower cultivated soil. ⺠PAH degradation was related with the rhizosphere effect on the microorganisms of soil. ⺠We separated the chemical impact of the root exudates from any root surface phenomena. ⺠Plants biostimulation was based on the chemical composition of the exudates.
