EFFECTIVENESS OF THE APPLICATION OF ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZA FUNGI AND ORGANIC AMENDMENTS TO IMPROVE SOIL QUALITY AND PLANT PERFORMANCE UNDER STRESS CONDITIONS (2010, background): “Phytoremediation, the use of plants in order to remove toxic metals from soil, is emerging as a potential strategy for costeffective and environmentally friendly remediation of contaminated soils (Glass, 2000).”
Phytoremediation of Soils Contaminated with Metals and Metalloids at Mining Areas: Potential of Native Flora (2014, background): “Advantages and limitations of phytoremediation [3,7,8,48,49].”
Transgenic Plants for Abiotic Stress Resistance (2010, background): “These options, while contributing to reductions in human exposure to some heavy metals, can be unrealistic, labor intensive, and prohibitively expensive (McLaughlin et al. 1999; Ensley 2000; Glass 2000; Clarkson 2002; Madden et al. 2002; Prasad 2002; Robinson et al. 2003; Song et al. 2003).”
Phytoremediation of Metals Using Transgenic Plants (2002, background): “The U.S. phytoremediation market for metals is expected to grow from ~$20 million in 2000 to ~$150 million in 2005 (Glass, 1999, 2000).”
Bacterial inoculants affecting nickel uptake by Alyssum murale from low, moderate and high Ni soils (2006, background): “This environmentally friendly, cost-effective and plant-based technology is expected to have significant economic, aesthetic, and technical advantages over traditional engineering techniques (Chaney, 1983; Baker et al., 1994; Glass, 2000; Susarla et al., 2002; Chaney et al., 2005).”
The role of bacteria on heavy-metal extraction and uptake by plants growing on multi-metal-contaminated soils (2008, background): “These practices usually generate secondary waste, destroy soil fertility and adversely affect its physical structure, remove biological activity from the treated soil, and are very expensive (Glass 1999; Pulford and Watson 2003).”
Metal hyperaccumulation in plants: Biodiversity prospecting for phytoremediation technology (2003, background): “Remediation programs relying on these materials may be sucessful (Comis, 1995; Glass, 1999; Glass, 2000a; Valdes, 2002; Wise et al. 2002) (Figure 5).”
