Ecology of Central European Non-Forest Vegetation: Coastal to Alpine, Natural to Man-Made Habitats (2017, background): “Fe2+, Mn2+, Cu+) are toxic, because they damage the electron transport systems in the cell (Shaw et al. 2004).”
Cellular Mechanisms in Higher Plants Governing Tolerance to Cadmium Toxicity (2014, background): “Consequently, increased Zn concentration results in the replacement of Cd, which otherwise may bind to the crucial and functional membrane and enzyme active sites, thereby inactivating their functions (Van Assche and Clijsters, 1990; Shaw et al., 2004).”
What are “heavy metals” in Plant Sciences? (2010, background): “The intention to use chemical properties with relevance to complex formation in living cells is very honest but we cannot expect at present that this makes possible any prediction of the quality or quantity of the toxic response (Duffus 2002; Shaw et al. 2004).”
Morphological, physiological and biochemical responses of plants to nickel stress: a review. (2013, unknown): “The toxic effect of Ni in plants includes decreased shoot and root growth and reduction in leaf area (Shaw et al., 2004).”
Phenolic compounds and their antioxidant activity in plants growing under heavy metal stress (2006, background): “[17] have reported that heavy metals induce oxidative stress in cells and tissues in the following ways: a) they transfer electrons directly in single-electron reactions, which generate free radicals.”
Definition of “Heavy Metals” and Their Role in Biological Systems (2010, background): “The intention to use chemical properties that are relevant to complex formation in living cells is a good one, but we cannot at present expect this to allow us to make any predictions about the quality or degree of heavy metal toxicity (Duffus 2002; Shaw et al. 2004).”
Heavy metals, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn and Cd, produce oxidative damage and evoke differential antioxidant responses in spinach (2009, background): “Excess of heavy metals cause phytotoxic effects in several ways, one of these being the excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which disturb the cellular redox environment causing oxidative stress (Erdei et al., 2002; Shaw et al., 2004; Nada et al., 2007).”
