Antioxidant defense system in leaves of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) and rape (Brassica napus) under cadmium stress (2009, background): “Phytoremediation has been viewed as a promising technique to remediate metal-contaminated soils because it offers advantages of being in situ, cost effective, and nondestructive (McGrath et al. 2001).”
Heavy metals accumulation in plants growing in ex tin mining catchment (2011, background): “The first strategy is called accumulation strategy where metal can accumulate in plants at both high and low concentration from soil (McGrath et al., 2001).”
Role of soil microbes in the rhizospheres of plants growing on trace metal contaminated soils in phytoremediation. (2005, background): “Different mechanisms have been proposed to explain the protective effect of AM and metal stress [77] [78] [79].”
Trichoderma: a potential bioremediator for environmental clean up (2013, background): “High accumulation of multiple metals is particularly advantageous in phytoremediation because soils are often contaminated with various metals (McGrath et al. 2001).”
Time course analysis of gene regulation under cadmium stress in rice (2009, background): “Many of the world’s areas of arable soils have become moderately contaminated with Cd through the use of phosphate fertilizers, sludge, and irrigation water containing Cd (Sanità di Toppi and Gabbrielli 1999; McGrath et al. 2001; Kikuchi et al. 2007).”
Rhizosphere processes and management in plant-assisted bioremediation (phytoremediation) of soils (2009, background): “The role of rhizosphere processes in the phytoremediation of inorganic pollutants, in particular metals/metalloids, is much less investigated and only a few specific reviews are available on this topic (McGrath et al. 2001; Fitz and Wenzel 2002; Wenzel et al. 2004).”
Is Brassica juncea a suitable plant for phytoremediation of cadmium in soils with moderately low cadmium contamination? – Possibility of using other plant species for Cd-phytoextraction (2006, background): “High accumulation of multiple metals is particularly advantageous in phytoremediation because soils are often contaminated with multiple metals (McGrath et al. 2001).”
Organic matter–microorganism–plant in soil bioremediation: a synergic approach (2013, background): “Padmavathiamma and Li (2007) have extensively reviewed the metal hyper-accumulation in plants, while the role of rhizosphere has been published in specific reviews (McGrath et al. 2001; Fitz and Wenzel 2002; Wenzel et al. 2004).”
Heavy metal detoxification and tolerance mechanisms in plants: Implications for phytoremediation (2016, background): “Heavy metal–bacteria interactions The bioavailability of heavy metals can be altered by rhizobacteria (McGrath et al. 2001; Whiting et al. 2001; Lasat 2002) through the release of chelating substances, acidification of the microenvironment, and by changing the redox potential (Smith and Read 1997).”
The impacts of metals and metalloids on insect behavior (2010, background): “Another widespread pollutant is cadmium (Cd), with contamination resulting from the application of sludge or urban composts, pesticides, fertilizers, emissions from waste incinerators, waste water irrigation, and residues from metalliferous mining and metal smelting (McGrath et al., 2001).”
Phytoextraction of Cd and Zn from agricultural soils by Salix ssp. and intercropping of Salix caprea and Arabidopsis halleri (2007, background): “Furthermore, they destroy the soil structure and leave it biologically inactive ( McGrath et al. 2001 ).”
