With the increasing demand for new energy, nuclear industry has been developing very fast, and uranium (U) pollution becomes a serious environmental problem especially in the mining area. The discharge of U products and wastes can contaminate soil and water, and finally threaten human health. On the other side, as an environment-friendly biotechnology, the importance of mycorrhizal technology in remediation of polluted environments has received much attention in recent years. Following a brief introduction of the environmental impacts of U contamination, this review summarized the effects of arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) on U uptake and accumulation by plants based on recent research progresses, suggested possible application of AM fungi in remediation of U contaminated environment, and finally discussed about the perspectives in relevant research area.
随着对新能源需求的不断增加，核工业发展迅速，铀（U）污染成为一个严重的环境问题，尤其是在矿区。铀产品和废物的排放会污染土壤和水源，最终威胁人类健康。另一方面，作为一种环境友好型生物技术，菌根技术在污染环境修复中的重要性近年来备受关注。在简要介绍铀污染的环境影响之后，本综述基于最近的研究进展总结了丛枝菌根（AM）对植物吸收和积累铀的影响，提出了AM真菌在铀污染环境修复中的可能应用，并最后讨论了相关研究领域的前景。
