Heavy Metals in Contaminated Soils: A Review of Sources, Chemistry, Risks and Best Available Strategies for Remediation (2011, background): “Theoretically, metal removal can be accounted for by determining metal concentration in the plant, multiplied by the reduction in soil metal concentrations [127].”
Transfer of heavy metals through terrestrial food webs: a review (2015, background): “…amount of a heavy metal that enters a plant from its substrate is expressed by the Transfer Factor (TF), also known as the bioaccumulation factor (Ghosh and Singh 2005; Bitterli et al. 2010): Cplant T F ¼ Csoil where Cplant is the concentration of a heavy metal in a plant and CSoil is the…”
Heavy metal detoxification and tolerance mechanisms in plants: Implications for phytoremediation (2016, background): “Many regulatory steps have been implemented and practiced to restrict the release of metal pollutants into soils, but they are typically not sufficient for fully evaluating contamination levels (Ghosh and Singh 2005).”
Legume– Rhizobium Symbioses as a Tool for Bioremediation of Heavy Metal Polluted Soils (2011, background): “With regard to the heavy metal sensitivity, plants can be classified into (1) metal excluders, (2) metal indicators, and (3) metal hyperaccumulators (Ghosh and Singh 2005; Prasad and Freitas 2003; Bleeker et al. 2003).”
Antioxidant enzyme responses of plants to heavy metal stress (2012, background): “Thus, metals render the land unsuitable for plant growth and destroy the biodiversity (Ghosh and Singh 2005).”
The molecular mechanism of zinc and cadmium stress response in plants (2012, background): “affected by pH, cation exchange capacity, concentrations of organic compounds or metal chelating compounds, properties of the minerals, and the activity of microorganisms [11].”
Germination and growth of six plant species on contaminated soil with spent oil (2007, methodology): “This technology has been applied to both organic and inorganic pollutants present in soil (solid substrate), water (liquid substrate) or the air (Ghosh and Singh, 2005).”
Phytoremediation of heavy metals by Trifolium alexandrinum (2012, background): “It is the best approach to remove contaminants primarily from soil and isolate them without destroying the soil structure and fertility (Gosh and Singh, 2005).”
