heavy-metal-remediation
Heavy-metal remediation refers to the use of plants to absorb, sequester, or detoxify toxic metals such as lead, cadmium, and arsenic from contaminated soils and water—a process known as phytoremediation. Understanding how plants tolerate and accumulate heavy metals is a key area of plant science research, as it reveals the molecular and physiological mechanisms plants use to manage cellular stress. This knowledge has practical applications for restoring polluted environments and developing crops that are safer to grow in contaminated agricultural land.
