pollution-reduction
Pollution reduction in plant science refers to the use of plants and plant-based systems to mitigate environmental contaminants, including heavy metals, volatile organic compounds, and excess nutrients in soil and water. Plants possess unique physiological mechanisms—such as phytoremediation, where roots absorb and sequester toxins, and phytodegradation, where plant enzymes break down pollutants—that make them powerful tools for ecological restoration. Understanding these processes at the molecular and cellular level enables researchers to engineer or select plant varieties with enhanced capacities to clean polluted environments sustainably.
