Heavy metals such as Fe, Mn, Cu, Ni, Co, Cd, Zn, Hg and arsenic are for long being
accumulated in soils through industrial waste and sewage disposal. Although some of these …

Plants take up a wide range of trace metals/metalloids (hereinafter referred to as trace
metals) from the soil, some of which are essential but become toxic at high concentrations …

The concentrations in plant parts depend both on intrinsic and extrinsic factors and vary
greatly for different species and for different metals. Responses by plant species to exposure …

Rapid industrialisation, increased rate of waste production, higher agricultural inputs,
mining, industrial waste, and contaminated irrigation water are increasing the heavy metal …

Many trace metals are essential micronutrients, but also potent toxins. Due to natural and
anthropogenic causes, vastly different trace metal concentrations occur in various habitats …

Nickel (Ni) is becoming a toxic pollutant in agricultural environments. Due to its diverse uses
from a range of common household items to industrial applications, it is essential to examine …

Phytoremediation is an economically viable green technology that utilizes hyperaccumulator
plants to remove heavy metals (HM) from the soil. Hyperaccumulators are adept at …
