• Tolerance and accumulation of heavy metals by Brassicaceae species grown in contaminated soils from Mediterranean regions of Spain (2006, background): “There is great interest in the identification of autochthonous plant species capable of accumulating elevated amounts of heavy metals in their tissues, with the aim of employing them for phytoremediation of contaminated soils (Salt et al., 1998; Baker and Brooks, 1989; Baker et al., 1994; Tordoff et”
• Intraspecific variation, adaptation, and evolution (2011, neutral): “…the same general conditions of low pH and high bioavailable metal concentrations, these conditions can be highly variable due to mine host rock type, ore type, and quantity of associated elemental sulfur and sulfate-bearing minerals (Quilty, 1975; Williamson et al., 1982; Tordoff et al., 2000).”
• Heavy metals accumulation in plants growing in ex tin mining catchment (2011, background): “The other major limitation of these techniques is that they fail to enhance the unsightly nature of abandoned mine sites (Tordoff et al., 2000).”
• A review of biochars' potential role in the remediation, revegetation and restoration of contaminated soils. (2011, background): “…the revegetation of contaminated soils is key to its stabilisation (Arienzo et al., 2004; Ruttens et al., 2006) and the presence of a vegetative cover over bare soil reduces the potential for migration of contaminants to watercourses or being inhaled by receptor organisms (Tordoff et al., 2000).”
• Arbuscular mycorrhiza can depress translocation of zinc to shoots of host plants in soils moderately polluted with zinc (2004, background): “There is therefore increasing concern worldwide that trace metal pollution may harm human food safety and health, and there is much interest in the protection of unpolluted sites and the effective management of contaminated sites (Tordoff et al., 2000).”
• Rhizosphere processes and management in plant-assisted bioremediation (phytoremediation) of soils (2009, background): “), water stress and nutrient deficiency are typical problems challenging the establishment of vegetation on contaminated sites (Tordoff et al. 2000; Bradshaw and Johnson 1992).”
• Phytostabilization of Mine Tailings in Arid and Semiarid Environments—An Emerging Remediation Technology (2007, background): “Major areas include northern Mexico and the Western United States, the Pacific coast of South America (Chile and Peru), southwestern Spain, western India, South Africa, and Australia (Munshower 1994; Tordoff et al. 2000).”
