Soil and some plant products are still found to be contaminated by DDT residues or metabolites 30 years after its total ban. In order to ensure high quality of organic products and their compliance with the EU rules, following a monitoring carried out to assess DDT and its metabolites residues level in different soils, we started a research program to test some methods of soil remediation, using fungal and bacteria consortia in association with Cucurbita pepo L. var. Zucchini - giromontiina plants. Results of the monitoring program showed that about 80% of the soil samples collected from eight Voivodeships contained DDT residues. The consortia utilized in the bioremediation trials showed to favor DDT uptake by the plants and its translocation to above ground organs. Rhizoremediation strategy seems thus to better sustain the uptake and accumulation of DDT residues by plants.
