Phytotoxicity of Mercury in Plants: A Review (2012, background): “The uptake can be reduced when the soil’s pH is high and/or there is an abundance of lime and salts [13, 19].”
Salicylic acid to decrease plant stress (2016, background): “Salicylic acid in mercury toxicity Mercury (Hg) is readily taken up by plants due to its transition properties and therefore gets accumulated at high level and thus resulting in toxicity or even death of plants (Patra and Sharma 2000; Esteban et al. 2008).”
Alleviation of Mercury Toxicity in Wheat by the Interaction of Mercury-Tolerant Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria (2016, background): “…Biotechnology Centre, Jawaharlal Nehru Agricultural University, Jabalpur 482004, India 2 Amity Institute of Biotechnology, Amity University, Sector 125, Noida, UP, India affects protein function, inhibits photosynthesis, and disturbs water uptake, in many plants (Patra and Sharma 2000).”
Plant mediated detoxification of mercury and lead (2017, background): “…photosynthesis system (Patra et al., 2004); inhibition of plant growth and yield production and also an affect on nutrient uptake and homeostasis (Patra and Sharma, 2000); the inducement of genotoxicity (Sharma et al., 1990); some researchers also found that mercury in small quantity induces…”
