Cadmium (Cd) is a primary contaminant in agricultural soils of the world. The ability of Cd
uptake, transport, detoxification, and accumulation varies among different plant species and …

Toxic heavy metals and metalloids in agricultural ecosystems are crucial factors that limit
global crop productivity and food safety. Industrial toxic heavy metals and metalloids such as …

We determined the concentrations of toxic and essential elements in rice and other grains
(lentils, barleys, beans, oats, wheat, and peas) grown in the United States (US) and other …

Cadmium (Cd) is a non-essential highly toxic element that poses a potential health threat for
plants, humans, and animals at considerably smaller concentrations. Plants can uptake Cd …

Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal element and the mechanism (s) underlying Cd tolerance in
plants are still unclear. Increasingly more studies have been conducted on Cd binding to …

Metalloids such as boron and silicon are key elements for plant growth and crop productivity.
However, toxic metalloids such as arsenic are increasing in the environment due to inputs …

Cadmium (Cd) isotopes are an important tool to better understand the inorganic and organic
geochemistry of Cd. Organic ligands play a key role to control the toxicity and mobility of Cd …

An increase in environmental pollution resulting from toxic heavy metals and metalloids [eg,
cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), and lead (Pb)] causes serious health risks to humans and …

Precision farming using nanoparticles is a cutting-edge technology for safe cultivation of
crop plants in marginal areas afflicted with environmental/climatic stresses like salinity …

The exogenous use of plant hormones as a chemical-physical method may have a positive
effect on improving the growth activity of plants under heavy metal stress. Therefore, the aim …
