Selenium hyperaccumulator plants Stanleya pinnata and Astragalus bisulcatus are colonized by Se-resistant, Se-excluding wasp and beetle seed herbivores. [PDF]

, 2012
Selenium (Se) hyperaccumulator plants can concentrate the toxic element Se up to 1% of shoot (DW) which is known to protect hyperaccumulator plants from generalist herbivores.

Evidence for nickel mobilisation in rhizosphere soils of Ni hyperaccumulator Odontarrhena serpyllifolia

, 2021
Purpose: Rhizosphere processes are known to modify uptake of elements from soil, but limited information is available for hyperaccumulators. We investigated labile Ni fractions and their kinetics of replenishment in the rhizospheres of the Ni ...

Effects of arsenic on nitrate metabolism in arsenic hyperaccumulating and non-hyperaccumulating ferns

Environmental Pollution, 2009
This study investigated the effects of arsenic on the in vitro activities of the enzymes (nitrate reductase and nitrite reductase) involved in nitrate metabolism in the roots, rhizomes, and fronds of four-month old Pteris vittata (arsenic - hyperaccumulator) and Pteris ensiformis (non-arsenic-hyperaccumulator) plants.

Genome-Wide Association Study of Cadmium Accumulation at the Seedling Stage in Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Cadmium is a potentially toxic heavy metal to human health. Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), a vegetable and oilseed crop, might also be a Cd hyperaccumulator, but there is little information on this trait in rapeseed.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis of Viola baoshanensis at Baoshan Pb/Zn mine in China

Journal of Environmental Engineering and Landscape Management
Despite great potential for arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in restoration of heavy metals (HMs) polluted lands, limited information is available about the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis of naturally-occurring hyperaccumulators.
