uptake of heavy metals by hyperaccumulators Mechanisms of As tolerance in Cytisus
striatus Phytoextraction of Cd from contaminated
soils requiring remediation Ecotypic variation in the transport,
compartmentation and coordination of Cd between populations of the
metal hyperaccumulator Thlaspi caerulescens Evidence for Ni-proton antiport activity
at the vacuolar embrane of the hyperaccumulator Alyssum lesbiacum Analysis of the heterogeneity of photosynthesis
in heavy metal-stressed plants by microscopic and macroscopic imaging
of chlorophyll fluorescence kinetics Finding how and where plants bind the
metals: a combined EXAFS and SEM/EDX approach for lead Regulation of glutathione biosynthesis
in plants Analysis of the mechanism and function
of the cation/H+ antiporter CAX2 in Mn2+ transport Responses of herbivores to cadmium hyperaccumulation
in Thlaspi caerulescens An Azolla filter for heavy metal binding
and Nymphaea as a tool for sludge treatment AtNRAMP3 encodes a vacuolar metal transporter
