Basic and applied research have unequivocally demonstrated that selected plant species possess the genetic potential to accumulate, degrade, metabolize and immobilize a wide range of contaminants. The main focus of this volume is on the recent advances of technologies using green plants for remediation of various metals and metalloids. Topics include biomonitoring of heavy metal pollution, amendments of higher uptake of toxic metals, transport of heavy metals in plants, and toxicity mechanisms. Further chapters discuss agro-technological methods for minimizing pollution while improving soil quality, transgenic approaches to heavy metal remediation and present protocols for metal remediation via in vitro root cultures. 410 0$aSoil biology ;$vv.35. 606 $aPhytoremediation 606 $aHyperaccumulator plants 606 $aSoil remediation 615 0$aPhytoremediation. 615 0$aHyperaccumulator plants. 615 0$aSoil remediation. 676 $a628.1/683 701 $aGupta$b Dharmendra Kumar$01761706 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910737300703321 996 $aPlant-based remediation processes$94201307 997 $aUNINA
