Hijacking membrane transporters for arsenic phytoextraction

Journal of Biotechnology, 2013
Arsenic is a toxic metalloid and recognized carcinogen. Arsenate and arsenite are the most common arsenic species available for uptake by plants. As an inorganic phosphate (Pi) analog, arsenate is acquired by plant roots through endogenous Pi transport systems. Inside the cell, arsenate is reduced to the thiol-reactive form arsenite.

Insights into Cadmium-Induced Morphophysiological Disorders in Althea rosea Cavan and Its Phytoremediation through the Exogeneous Citric Acid

Agronomy, 2022
Cadmium (Cd) is taken in plants from soil and then travels through the food cycle, posing a major threat to all the units of the ecosystem. A pot experiment was conducted to understand the influence of citric acid (CA) on Cadmium (Cd) phytoextraction ...

Screening of Native Plant Species in the Artisanal Gold Mining Sites of Doko, Guinea: Perspectives for Phytoremediation

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study focuses on phytoremediation in a gold mining‐contaminated area in Doko, Guinea. Plant, soil, and rhizospheric soil samples were collected and subjected to physicochemical analyses to quantify heavy metal content. Biological indicators: bioconcentration factor (BCF), translocation factor (TF), and biological accumulation coefficient (BAC ...

Phosphate‐Assisted Phytoextraction in As‐Contaminated Soil

Engineering in Life Sciences, 2004
AbstractIn this paper, the effect of phosphate on As phytoextraction was examined. The effect of phosphate on As dissolution, the As uptake of plants, the internal plant translocation, and phytotoxic effect were investigated. Lupine plants were grown on As‐contaminated soil collected from an industrial site containing 670 mg/kg As and were treated with
