Metal hyperaccumulation in plants: Biodiversity prospecting for phytoremediation technology (2003, background): “…plant and microbe production and field trials will fetch phytoremediaition field applications (Misra and Gedamu, 1989; Stomp et al. 1994; Ow, 1996; Arazi et al. 1999; Cai et al. 1999; Karenlampi et al. 2000; Mengoni et al. 2000; Kramer and Chardonnens, 2001; Pence et al. 2000; Palmer et al. 2001).”
Rhizosphere processes and management in plant-assisted bioremediation (phytoremediation) of soils (2009, background): “The unique ability of hyperaccumulator plants to take up excessive amounts of metals or metalloids has been related to high-affinity transport systems across the plasma membranes of root tissues (Lasat et al. 1996; Lombi et al. 2001; Pence et al. 2000).”

Molecular Mechanism of Heavy Metal Toxicity and Tolerance in Plants: Central Role of Glutathione in Detoxification of Reactive Oxygen Species and Methylglyoxal and in Heavy Metal Chelation (2012, background): “This may be due to constitutive high expression of an HM transporter in the plasma membrane, as was found for the Zn and Cd hyperaccumulator Thlaspi caerulescens [152, 153].”
Transition metal transporters in plants. (2003, unknown): “A ZIP gene homologue, TcZNT1 , from the Zn/Cd-hyperaccumulating plant, Thlaspi caerulescens was shown to mediate high-afﬁnity Zn 2+ uptake and low-afﬁnity Cd 2+ uptake following expression in yeast (Pence et al ., 2000).”
Intraspecific variation of metal preference patterns for hyperaccumulation in Thlaspi caerulescens: evidence from binary metal exposures (2008, background): “However, transmembrane metal transporters seem to play a decisive role in these processes (Pence et al. 2000; Assunção et al. 2001; Persans et al. 2001; Dräger et al. 2004).”
The Genetic Basis of Metal Hyperaccumulation in Plants (2002, background): “…way with the cloning of the first cDNAs — for three enzymes in the pathway of histidine biosynthesis — from Thlaspi goesingense by Persans et al. (1999), closely followed by cloning of a cDNA from T. caerulescens by Pence et al. (2000) encoding a putative zinc transporter from the ZIP gene family.”
Cadmium toxicity in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants grown in hydroponics (2009, background): “There is evidence that metal transporters from different families such as ZIP and Nramp are able to transport several divalent cations, including Cd (Korshunova et al., 1999; Pence et al., 2000; Thomine et al., 2000).”
Heavy metal toxicity: cadmium permeates through calcium channels and disturbs the plant water status. (2002, background): “Taken up by the roots via essential metal transporters (Cohen et al., 1998; Korshunova et al., 1999; Lasat et al., 2000; Pence et al., 2000) and after a prolonged exposure to Cd2þ partly translocated to the shoot, Cd2þ”
Metal hyperaccumulation and bioremediation (2007, background): “The calamine plants were also the most Zn tolerant, suggesting that high ZTP1 expression might contribute towards Zn tolerance (Pence et al. 2000).”
Metallophytes—a view from the rhizosphere (2010, background): “…and non- hyperaccumulators may be related to a higher expression level of the same transporters in hyperaccumulators than in non-hyperaccumulators, or the presence of transporters with different kinetic properties; there is more evidence so far for the former (Pence et al. 2000; Li et al. 2005a).”
