Aluminum Toxicity and Tolerance in Plants.
Aluminum (Al) is the most abundant metal in the earths crust, comprising about 7% of its mass. Since many plant species are sensitive to micromolar concentrations of Al, the potential for soils to be A1 toxic is considerable. Fortunately, most of the A1 is bound by ligands or occurs in other nonphytotoxic forms such as aluminosilicates and precipitates. However, solubilization of this A1 is enh...
متن کاملProteomics of heavy metal toxicity in plants.
Plants endure a variety of abiotic and biotic stresses, all of which cause major limitations to production. Among abiotic stressors, heavy metal contamination represents a global environmental problem endangering humans, animals, and plants. Exposure to heavy metals has been documented to induce changes in the expression of plant proteins. Proteins are macromolecules directly responsible for mo...
متن کاملMetal Tolerance, Accumulation, and Detoxification in Plants with Emphasis on Arsenic in Terrestrial Plants
A number of review articles have appeared in the literature recently on metal accumulation by plants. However, reports on the tolerance, accumulation and detoxification of arsenic in plants, especially in terrestrial plants, are limited. In light of the strong needs for study of arsenic biogeochemistry and development of arsenic decontamination techniques, in this paper we. review arsenic uptak...
متن کاملplant tolerance and metal uptake of some weed plants in a zinc contaminated soil
however some of heavy metals such as zn, are essential for plant growth, their elevated concentrations have toxic effects and may inhibit plant growth. in this study, plant tolerance and zn uptake and accumulation potential of some weed plant species from western azerbaijan region were studied in a soil spiked with 0, 1000, 3000 and 6000 mgzn kgsoil-1. seed of heliotrope (heliotropium europaeum...
متن کاملHeavy metals toxicity in plants: An overview on the role of glutathione and phytochelatins in heavy metal stress tolerance of plants
Plants experience oxidative stress upon exposure to heavy metals that leads to cellular damage. In addition, plants accumulate metal ions that disturb cellular ionic homeostasis. To minimize the detrimental effects of heavy metal exposure and their accumulation, plants have evolved detoxification mechanisms. Such mechanisms are mainly based on chelation and subcellular compartmentalization. Che...
