• Trace metals in mangrove seedlings: role of iron plaque formation (2005, background): “…to flooding and porewater salinity (e.g., Jim enez and Sauter 1991; McKee 1993, 1995), the moderation of the uptake of potentially toxic metals, from the organism to the cellular levels (e.g., MacFarlane and Burchett 2000), may possibly contribute to determine the performance of mangrove seedlings.”
• Prospects of Halophytes in Understanding and Managing Abiotic Stress Tolerance (2012, background): “Indeed mangroves and a number of other estuarine halophytes with glandular tissue are known to excrete heavy metals concomitantly with other solutes (MacFarlane and Burchett 2000 ) .”
• Ecophysiological and anatomical changes due to uptake and accumulation of heavy metal in Brachiaria decumbens (2011, background): “When penetrating the roots, heavy metals are predominantly accumulated and translocated in the cell wall system (MacFarlane and Burchett, 2000), with the exodermis and the endodermis constituting an effective barrier to the movement of these ions (Ederli et al.”
• Metal uptake, transport and release by wetland plants: implications for phytoremediation and restoration. (2004, background): “Leaves of seedings of the mangrove A. marina excreted significant quantities of zinc or copper after exposure to these metals (Waisel, 1977; MacFarlane and Burchett, 2000).”
• Mangrove root: adaptations and ecological importance (2016, background): “In A. marina, the root epidermis has been found to form a major barrier to Pb (MacFarlane and Burchett 2000).”
• REVIEW: PART OF A SPECIAL ISSUE ON HALOPHYTES AND SALINE ADAPTATIONS How can we take advantage of halophyte properties to cope with heavy metal toxicity in salt-affected areas? (2015, background): “In response to Pb, highest relative Pb concentration was located in the epidermis and a significant decrease was observed within the cortical parenchyma, with small amounts of Pb reaching the vascular tissue (MacFarlane and Burchett, 2000).”
• Heavy metal detoxification mechanisms in halophytes: an overview (2017, background): “…found that, there are several salt excreting halophytes (Atriplex halimus, Tamarix aphylla, T. smyrnensis, Armeria maritime and A. marina) whose glandular tissues are not specific to salt ions and hence, other toxic elements such as Cd, Pb or Zn are secreted by their salt glands or trichomes and…”
