OsHMA3, a P1B‐type of ATPase affects root‐to‐shoot cadmium translocation in rice by mediating efflux into vacuoles

TL;DR: It is proposed that the root cell cytoplasm of Cd-overaccumulating rice plants has more Cd available for loading into the xylem as a result of the lack of OsHMA3-mediated transportation of CD to the vacuoles, which results in Cd translocation to the shoots in higher concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
A single recessive gene controls cadmium translocation in the cadmium hyperaccumulating rice cultivar Cho-Ko-Koku.

TL;DR: The data indicate that Cd translocation mediated by the gene on qCdT7 plays an important role in Cd accumulation on contaminated soil.

Breeding and characterization of the rice (Oryza sativa L.) line “Akita 110” for cadmium phytoremediation
Ryuichi Takahashi,Masashi Ito,Kazunao Katou,Kensuke Sato,Shinpei Nakagawa,Kouichi Tezuka,Hiromori Akagi,Tomohiko Kawamoto +7 more
TL;DR: The rice line “Akita 110” developed here exhibits improved cultivation traits compared to the “Cho-ko-koku,” with comparable Cd extraction performance, and is a promising candidate for Cd phytoremediation in northern parts of Japan.
