• Arsenic tolerance in Arabidopsis is mediated by two ABCC-type phytochelatin transporters (2010, background): “cerevisiae and humans, which depend on GSH for arsenic detoxification, in plants detoxification of arsenic has been shown to mainly depend on PCs (8, 16, 33, 34).”
• Toxic Heavy Metal and Metalloid Accumulation in Crop Plants and Foods. (2016, background): “Furthermore, As(III) is more bioavailable than As(V), which is one reason why the soilto-plant transfer factor of As in rice is nearly ten times that in other cereals (148).”
• Arsenic-induced metabolic disturbances and their mitigation mechanisms in crop plants: A review (2016, background): “AsV uptake mechanism also involves co-transport of phosphate or AsV and H+, with stoichiometry of at least 2H+ for each H2PO − 4 or H2AsO − 4 (Zhao et al. 2010).”
• Impact of alternate wetting and drying on rice physiology, grain production, and grain quality (2017, background): “Arsenic in rice 86 grains is a major concern in some parts of the world, especially South Asia and South-East Asia, 87 where large quantities of rice are consumed (Zhao et al., 2010).”
• Managing the Nutrition of Plants and People (2012, positive): “Examples of the successful use of agronomic strategies include (1) the application of Se-fertilisers to increase dietary Se intakes in Finland, New Zealand, and elsewhere [25, 26, 128], (2) the iodinisation of irrigation water to increase dietary intakes of I in Xinjiang, China [23, 129], and (3) th”
• Arsenic Uptake, Toxicity, Detoxification, and Speciation in Plants: Physiological, Biochemical, and Molecular Aspects (2018, background): “[138] identified a bi-directional As(III) aquaporin transporter (Lsi1), which contributed to approximately 20% efflux of As(III) in rice plants.”
• Algae as nutritional and functional food sources: revisiting our understanding (2016, positive): “All seafoods contain arsenic, which enters cells through phosphate transporters and aquaglyceroporins (Bhattacharjee et al. 2008; Cooney et al. 1978; Zhao et al. 2010).”
• Arsenic Accumulation in Rice and Probable Mitigation Approaches: A Review (2017, background): “This factor contributes to higher concentrations of arsenic in rice grain, greater than the recommended safe limit [12,52,53].”
