Bioavailability of heavy metals can be modified by different root exudates. Among them, low
molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs) play an important role in this process. Three …

Arsenic hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata (PV) is efficient in taking up As and nutrients from As-
contaminated soils. We evaluated the mechanisms used by PV to mobilize As and Fe by …

Phosphorus (P) is one of the most important nutrients for phytoremediation of arsenic (As)-
contaminated soils. In this study, we demonstrated that As-hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata …

Dittrichia viscosa (L.) Greuter is plant species commonly found in degraded zones of
Asturias (Spain), where it accumulates high levels of Cd, but the mechanisms involved in …

Metabolite analysis or metabolomics is an important component of systems biology in the

Plants may survive salinity and alkalinity with differential metabolic responses. The aim of
this study was to gain further insights into the differential response to salinity and alkalinity …

Metal detoxification in plants is a complex process that involves different mechanisms, such
as the retention of metals to the cell wall and their chelation and subsequent …
