Engineering a catabolic pathway in plants for the degradation of 1,2-dichloroethane [PDF]

, 2008
Plants are increasingly being employed to clean up environmental pollutants such as heavy metals; however, a major limitation of phytoremediation is the inability of plants to mineralize most organic pollutants.
