Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metal toxicity and deficiency are both common abiotic problems faced by plants. While metal contamination around the world is a critical issue, the bioavailability of some essential metals like zinc (Zn) and selenium (Se) can be seriously low in other locations. The list of metals spread in high concentrations in soil, water and air includes several toxic as well as essential elements, such as arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), aluminum (Al), and selenium (Se). The problems for some metals are geographically confined, while for others, they are widespread. For instance, arsenic is an important toxic metalloid whose contamination in Southeast Asia and other parts of world is well documented. Its threats to human health via food consumption have generated immense interest in understanding plants’ responses to arsenic stress. Metals constitute crucial components of key enzymes and proteins in plants. They are important for the proper growth and development of plants. In turn, plants serve as sources of essential elements for humans and animals. Studies of their physiological effects on plants metabolism have led to the identification of crucial genes and proteins controlling metal uptake and transport, as well as the sensing and signaling of metal stresses. Plant-Metal Interactions sheds light on the latest development and research in analytical biology with respect to plant physiology. More importantly, it showcases the positive and negative impacts of metals on crop plants growth and productivity.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two experiments were conducted in an attempt to identify suitable candidates for the remediation of saline metal-polluted environments. Percent germination and speed of germination of the glycophyte H. vulgare and the halophytes P. coronopus and P. oleracea were evaluated at three salinity levels (0, 9, 18 dS/m) and 4 metals (no metal, 2 ppm Cd, 4 ppm Cr and 10 ppm Ni). While Cd and Cr stimulated the germination of P. coronopus at 9 dS/m, all metals decreased the speed of germination of//, vulgare at 18 dS/m. Both P. coronopus and P. oleracea had no germination at 18 dS/m, and their speed of germination decreased with increasing salinity. This was attributed to osmotically induced dormancy, triggered by salinity stress.--The salt-tolerant plants H. vulgare, I. crithmoides, P. coronopus and P. oleracea, were grown in a greenhouse at three salinity levels (0, 9, 18 dS/m) and four metals (no metal, 2 ppm Cd, 4ppm Cr, 10 ppm Ni), to evaluate the combined effects of metal and salinity on plant metal uptake While H. vulgare, I. crithmoides and P. coronopus were tolerant to both salinity and metal, growth of P. oleracea was reduced at 18 dS/m Growth of P. oleracea was also affected by Cd and Ni treatments. Therefore, it appears that tolerance thresholds of P. oleracea for Cd and Ni are below 2 ppm and 10 ppm respectively. Since metals decreased Na accumulation in plants, it might be speculated that metals induce a physiological change at the level of root permeability, thus affecting Na uptake by plants--None of the plants accumulated significant amounts of metals. Metal uptake was affected by salinity as decreases in Cd, Cr and Ni uptake were observed with increasing salinity. The restriction of Na uptake beyond a certain salinity level in the environment might reduce the concurrent uptake of metals such as Cd, Cr and Ni. Consequently, reduced metal uptake occuring with high salinity stress questions the use of salt-tolerant plants for phytoremediation.

Book excerpt: Trace metals occur as natural constituents of the earth's crust, and are ever present constituents of soils, natural waters and living matter. The biological significance of this disparate assemblage of elements has gradually been uncovered during the twentieth century; the resultant picture is one of ever-increasing complexity. Several of these elements have been demonstrated to be essential to the functions of living organisms, others appear to only interact with living matter in a toxic manner, whilst an ever-decreasing number do not fall conveniently into either category. When the interactions between trace metals and plants are considered, one must take full account of the known chemical properties of each element. Consideration must be given to differences in chemical reactivity, solubility and to interactions with other inorganic and organic molecules. A clear understanding of the basic chemical properties of an element of interest is an essential pre-requisite to any subsequent consideration of its biological significance. Due consideration to basic chemical considerations is a theme which runs through the collection of chapters in both volumes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of microbial plant protection products is growing and their importance will strongly increase due to political and public pressure. World population is growing and the amount of food needed by 2050 will be double of what is produced now whereas the area of agricultural land is decreasing. We must increase crop yield in a sustainable way. Chemical plant growth promoters must be replaced by microbiological products. Also here, the use of microbial products is growing and their importance will strongly increase. A growing area of agricultural land is salinated. Global warming will increase this process. Plants growth is inhibited by salt or even made impossible and farmers tend to disuse the most salinated lands. Microbes have been very successfully used to alleviate salt stress of plants. Chemical pollution of land can make plant growth difficult and crops grown are often polluted and not suitable for consumption. Microbes have been used to degrade these chemical pollutants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book stands as a one place knowledge hub for plant metal(loid) transporters. The book comprehensively covers holistic aspect of metal(loid) transporters involved in uptake and translocation of essential as well as toxic metal(loid)s. Essential and beneficial metal(loid)s are required in every biological process for normal plant growth and development, however in excess they are toxic. There are toxic metal(loid)s also whose accumulation in plants interferes with normal cellular functioning and hampers growth of plants. Hence, metal(loid) uptake and accumulation in plants is a highly regulated phenomenon involving the role of several transporters, enzymes, metabolites, transcription factors and post translational modifications. The book contains chapters from the experts and the contents of the book are presented in simple language and represented through beautiful and scientifically informative figures and tables. This book is of interest to teachers, researchers, doctoral and graduate students working in the area of plant physiology, environmental biotechnology, plant biotechnology metal(loid) stress, phytoremediation and crop biofortification.
