Mechanisms of arsenic assimilation by plants and countermeasures to attenuate its accumulation in crops other than rice
Arsenic is a ubiquitous metalloid in the biosphere, and its origin can be either geogenic or
anthropic. Four oxidation states (− 3, 0,+ 3 and+ 5) characterize organic and inorganic As …
