Phytoremediation: A Novel Strategy for the Removal of Toxic Metals from the Environment Using Plants
David E. Salt,Michael J. Blaylock,Nanda P. B. A. Kumar,Viatcheslav. Dushenkov,Burt D. Ensley,Ilan Chet,Ilya Raskin +6 more
TL;DR: Biological mechanisms of toxic metal uptake, translocation and resistance as well as strategies for improving phytoremediation are also discussed.

Phytoremediation of metals
TL;DR: In this article, a process for removal of metal ions from soil and methods for effecting such removal are described, based on manipulating the growth of crop and crop-related members of the plant family Brassicaceae in metal-containing soils so that the metal in the soils is made more available to the plants.
Patent
Method for removing soluble metals from an aqueous phase
TL;DR: In this article, a process for the removal of metal ions from solution and means for effecting such removal are described, based on the hydroponic growth of sunflowers, terrestrial turfgrasses and/or members of the family Brassicaceae in solutions containing one or more metal ions.
Patent
Inducing hyperaccumulation of metals in plant shoots
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present methods by which hyperaccumulation of metals in plant shoots is induced by exposure to inducing agents, such as conditions of low pH, chelators, herbicides, and high levels of heavy metals.
