Photosynthesis in Heavy Metal Stressed Plants (2004, background): “Photosynthesis has also been found to be one of the most sensitive processes in plants treated with mercury (for reviews, see Boening 2000; Patra and Sharma 2000) and lead (for review, see Singh et al. 1997).”
Homeostasis and toxicology of essential metals (2012, background): “Organomercury uptake to fish tissues is higher at lower exposure water pH (Boening, 2000).”

Delta smelt: Life history and decline of a once-abundant species in the San Francisco estuary (2016, neutral): “Sublethal effects of these elements on fishes include reduced fertility and growth, impaired neurological and endocrine functions, and skeletal deformities that affect swimming performance (Boening 2000; Chapman et al. 2010).”
Enhanced bioaccumulation of mercury in deep-sea fauna from the Bay of Biscay (north-east Atlantic) in relation to trophic positions identified by analysis of carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes (2012, positive): “Hg is a metal of particular concern in the marine environment because it has no known biological function and is toxic to all living organisms including human (Eisler, 1987; Boening, 2000; WHO, 2003, 2010).”
