The sociality of bioremediation: Hijacking the social lives of microbial populations to clean up heavy metal contamination

Bioremediation to remove toxic heavy metals from the environment relies on metal‐tolerant plants or microbes to do the job, but with varying degrees of success. Understanding the ecology and evolution of metal‐resistant bacterial societies could drastically improve the efficiency of microbial biorem...
