heavy-metals
Heavy metals are high-density metallic elements that can accumulate in plant tissues when absorbed from contaminated soil or water. Understanding how plants uptake and concentrate these elements is critical for assessing plant toxicity, food safety risks, and soil contamination levels. This research is essential for developing phytoremediation strategies and protecting both plant health and human food security.
