• Toxic Heavy Metal and Metalloid Accumulation in Crop Plants and Foods. (2016, background): “Consumption of crops containing trace amounts of these toxic elements contributes to potentially health-threatening human exposure, albeit to varying degrees because of differences between the elements in the efficiency of transfer from the soil to aboveground tissues of crops (100).”
• Occurrence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in mining-impacted sites and their contribution to ecological restoration: Mechanisms and applications (2017, background): “Mining may cause extensive environmental stresses and damages to soil, plants, and ecosystems (Boyer and Wratten, 2010; Cooke and Johnson, 2002; Dudka and Adriano, 1997; Li, 2006; Peralta-Videa et al., 2009; Sheoran et al., 2010; Wong, 2003), which are summarized in Table 2.”
• Phytotoxicity of Mercury in Plants: A Review (2012, background): “Plants considered to be indicators can regulate the uptake and transport of the pollutant to the aerial part, being that the internal concentration is often similar to the one observed in the soil’s parent soil [17].”
• Heavy metals in agricultural soils of the European Union with implications for food safety. (2016, background): “A recent review by Peralta-Videa et al. (2009) summarizes the impact of heavy metal from food origin on human health aswell as themechanism of uptake, transformation and bioaccumulation of heavy metals by plants.”
• Chromium as an Environmental Pollutant: Insights on Induced Plant Toxicity (2012, background): “[5] J.”
• Salicylic acid to decrease plant stress (2016, background): “Besides accumulation of essential elements from their surroundings, plants also accumulate some heavy metals like cadmium, lead, mercury, chromium, and aluminum (Mendoza-Cozatl and Moreno-Sanchez 2005; Peralta-Videa et al. 2009).”
• Transfer of heavy metals through terrestrial food webs: a review (2015, background): “In particular, Peralta-Videa et al. (2009) discuss the mobility of Cd, Cr, Hg, As, and Pb in soils and their potential for uptake by plants, a process that is also mediated by rhizospheric microbial activity (Fitz and Wenzel 2002; Wenzel 2009).”
