Phytoremediation of contaminated soils and groundwater: lessons from the field (2009, background): “Arisi et al. (2000) reported that poplars overexpressing bacterial (γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase showed better Cd accumulation, but not improved Cd tolerance.”
Heavy metals and woody plants - biotechnologies for phytoremediation (2011, background): “Poplars overex pressing a bacterial glutamylcysteine syn thetase in the cytosol reached a 30-fold in crease in its foliar activity compared to un transformed controls; this allowed greater tissue cadmium accumulation but had only a marginal effect on cadmium tolerance (Arisi et al. 2001).”
Metal hyperaccumulation in plants: Biodiversity prospecting for phytoremediation technology (2003, background): “Glutathione and organic acids metabolism plays a key role in metal tolerance in plants (Arisi et al. 1997; Huang et al. 1998; Schäfer et al 1998; Zhu et al. 1999a; Arisi et al. 2000; Ma et al. 2001a).”
Alleviation by calcium of cadmium-induced root growth inhibition in Arabidopsis seedlings (2005, background): “Cd would generate oxidative stresses (Stohs and Bagchi 1995; Arduini et al. 1996; Arisi et al. 2000; Schutzendubel et al. 2001) and due to these results, such chemicals may be accumulated.”
Physiology and molecular biology of stress tolerance in plants (2006, background): “Whereas, overexpression of gshI increased γ-ECS activity and accumulation of foliar glutathione in transformed poplar resulting in higher Cd accumulation in tissues, but had only a marginal effect on Cd tolerance in poplar (Arisi et al., 2000).”
