Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDifferential Gene Transcription in Red Oak (Quercus rubra) Genotypes Resistant to Copper ToxicityProulx Migueal, Paul Michael, Charnelle Djeukam, Kabwe NkongoloToxicity of metals is a major abiotic stressor of plants. Copper (Cu) is one of the most abundant metals in soils from the Greater Sudbury Region (GSR) due to its mining history. Recent studies have described several transporters and chelating proteins involved in copper resistance. Quercus rubra (Red Oak) is a common species that grows in metal contaminated soils in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 11 Dec 2017 · 8,545 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleHEAVY METAL ANALYSIS IN RED OAK (QUERCUS RUBRA) POPULATIONS FROM A MINING REGION IN NORTHERN ONTARIO (CANADA): EFFECT OF SOIL LIMING AND ANALYSIS OF GENETIC VARIATIONAnh Tran, K. K. Nkongolo, M. Mehes-Smith et al.Understanding the dynamic of metals in soil and plants and population diversity in Northern Ontario is essential in determining progress toward ecosystem sustainability in reclaimed sites. The objectives of the present study were to assess the levels of metal content in soils and their accumulation in red oak plants from limed and unlimed sites. Genetic variation in red oak populations … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 25 Jun 2014 · 7,732 accessesView PDF Cite
