• Interaction of nickel and manganese in accumulation and localization in leaves of the Ni hyperaccumulators Alyssum murale and Alyssum corsicum (2008, background): “Ni localization patterns have been determined for 12 Alyssum Ni hyperaccumulator species/ecotypes (Krämer et al. 1997; Küpper et al. 2001; Psaras et al. 2000; Kerkeb and Krämer 2003; Marmiroli et al. 2003; Broadhurst et al. 2004a, b; McNear et al. 2005; Asemaneh et al. 2006; De La Fuente et al. 2007”
• The Genetic Basis of Metal Hyperaccumulation in Plants (2002, background): “(Mesjasz-Przybylowicz et al., 1994), Alyssum spp. (Krämer et al., 1997a; Psaras et al., 2000; Küpper et al., 2001), and Thlaspi goesingense (Küpper et al., 2001), as well as for both zinc and cadmium in Thlaspi caerulescens (Vázquez et al., 1992, 1994; Küpper et al., 1999; Frey et al., 2000).”
• Evolution of metal tolerance in higher plants (2006, background): “(2) At the tissue level, metal surplus is allocated to metabolically less active tissues (CHARDONNENS et al. 1999; BROADHURST et al. 2004), such as epidermal cells with the exception of guard cells (VAZQUEZ et al. 1992; HEATH et al. 1997; PSARAS et al. 2000).”
• Nickel hyperaccumulation by the species of Alyssum and Thlaspi (Brassicaceae) from the ultramafic soils of the Balkans. (2010, background): “Leaves were preferred because they generally show the highest concentrations of Ni (and possibly Co) in hyperaccumulating members of the Brassicaceae, and especially in the genera studied here (Psaras et al. 2000; Broadhurst et al. 2004).”
• Nickel defends the South African hyperaccumulator Senecio coronatus (Asteraceae) against Helix aspersa (Mollusca: Pulmonidae) (2002, background): “Recent reports that Ni in hyperaccumulator leaves is concentrated in epidermal cells (e.g., Mesjasz-Przybylowicz et al. 1996; Heath et al. 1997; Küpper et al. 2000; Psaras et al. 2000) suggest that snails may be able to directly assess the Ni concentration of leaves.”
