Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytomanagement of Heavy Metal Lead by Fodder Grass Lasiurus scindicus in Polluted Soil and Water of Dravyawati RiverParul Sharma, Sonali PandeySoil and water pollution with heavy metals is a worldwide issue and is still unresolved. Phytoremediation is a new and rising technology that applies plants for cleanup lightly contaminated soils and water. Lasiurus scindicus have been chosen in this work for decontaminating soil and water from heavy metal (lead). This plant was grown in contaminated soil and water over a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,725 accessesView PDFCite
HypothesisOpen accessIn the abstractCan Anthocyanins be Part of the Metal Homeostasis Network in Plant?Marco LandiAnthocyanins are a class of flavonoids with a high level of diversification and likely the most studied pathway of secondary metabolism in Plantae. Anthocyanins have raised a growing interest due to the huge variability of their chemical structures and the more new anthocyanins are isolated from plants, the more questions on their evolutionary and ecological meaning they raise. Antioxidant, photoprotection … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2015 · 8,568 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOPPER STRESS ON CELLULAR CONTENTS AND FATTY ACID PROFILES IN CHLORELLA SPECIESG. Sibi, T.S. Anuraag, Geeta BafilaHigher photosynthetic efficiency and biomass production with rapid growth makes microalgae as potential candidates over other energy crops in many applications. Heavy metals influence the production of secondary metabolites and lipd content of microalgae in particular. A study was conducted using six Chlorella species under heavy metal exposure to evaluate the copper stress on biomass, cellular and lipid contents. Preliminary … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 20 Aug 2014 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
