Response of cytokinins and nitrogen metabolism in the fronds of Pteris sp. under arsenic stress.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Given the close relationship between cytokinins (CKs), photosynthesis and nitrogen metabolism, this study assessed the effect of arsenic (As) contamination on these metabolic components in the As-hyperaccumulators Pteris cretica L. var.

Decontamination of water objects from 137Cs by means of bioplateau

Ядерна фізика та енергетика, 2019
Mobile bioplateau design has been developed for water bodies treatment from ions 137Cs. Comparative study of the cleaning efficiency of different species of plants-hyperaccumulators of the aqueous medium from radiocaesium ions has been carried out.

Soil Phytomining: Recent Developments—A Review

Soil Systems
Phytomining (PM) is defined as the process of using plants capable of bio-extracting metals from soil in order to explore them economically. This relatively new, innovative method has been gathering significant attention in both the academic and ...

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

PLoS ONE, 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.

Screening of As-Resistant Bacterial Strains from the Bulk Soil and the Rhizosphere of Mycorrhizal Pteris vittata Cultivated in an Industrial Multi-Polluted Site

Soil Systems
Arsenic (As) contamination poses significant environmental and health concerns globally, particularly in regions with high exposure levels due to anthropogenic activities. As phytoremediation, particularly through the hyperaccumulator fern Pteris vittata,

Effects of intercropping system on phytoremediation of cadmium contaminated farmland soil in the central Hanjiang River Basin

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
IntroductionCadmium (Cd) pollution poses a global environmental challenge, especially in the rapidly developing central Han River Basin. Cd contamination in farmland soil there is becoming increasingly serious, warranting studies on remediation using ...

Hyperaccumulator plants as industrial crops for sustainable metal recovery and biomass utilization on marginal lands: A comprehensive review

Industrial Crops and Products
The deliberate cultivation of hyperaccumulator plants for phytomining represents a promising industrial crop strategy for extracting valuable metals from marginal, metal-rich soils while simultaneously generating biomass for energy and materials.

Metallophytes in Latin America: a remarkable biological and genetic resource scarcely known and studied in the region Metalófitas en América Latina: un recurso biológico y genético único poco conocido y estudiado en la región

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2004
In Latin America, metallic ores are abundant and diverse. However, few metal-tolerant and metal hyperaccumulator plants have been reported in the region in comparison with other areas of the world.
