Heavy metal accumulation and signal transduction in herbaceous and woody plants: Paving the way for enhancing phytoremediation efficiency.
TL;DR: The progress in understanding the structural, physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying HM uptake, transport, sequestration and detoxification, as well as the regulation of these processes by signal transduction in response to HM exposure are reviewed.

Soil-Plant-Microbe Interactions in Stressed Agriculture Management: A Review
TL;DR: In this article, the role of soil-plant-microbe interactions along with organic manure in solving stressed agriculture problems is described, and the application of organic manure as a soil conditioner to stressed soils along with suitable microbial strains could further enhance the plant microbe associations and increase the crop yield.

TL;DR: Results indicate that transgenics are more tolerant of 100 μM Cd(2+) than wild-type plants, probably due to the GSH-mediated induction of the transcription of genes involved in Cd (2+) transport and detoxification.

Exogenous abscisic acid alleviates zinc uptake and accumulation in Populus × canescens exposed to excess zinc
TL;DR: It is suggested that exogenous ABA can decrease Zn concentrations in P. × canescens under excess Zn for 7 d, likely by modulating the transcript levels of key genes involved in Zn uptake and detoxification.

Synergistic association of endophytic fungi enhances Glycine max L. resilience to combined abiotic stresses: Heavy metals, high temperature and drought stress
TL;DR: In this paper, the interactive effects of hormone (gibberellins and indole-3-acetic acid)-producing and combined multi-abiotic stresses (heavy metals; Ni, Cd, and Al, drought resistant, high temperature) resistant Paecilomyces formosus LHL10 and Penicillium funiculosum LHL06 on Glycine max L. max in metal-contaminated soil in semiarid and high-temperature conditions for sustainable agriculture.

Sand and Water Culture Methods Used in the Study of Plant Nutrition
Abstract: Since its appearanc e in 1952, Technical Communication no. 22 of the Commonwealt h Bureau of Horticulture and Plantation Crops has come to be recognized, at least in the English language, as the standar d reference for those interested in the developmen t of sand and water culture techniques used in plant nutrition research throughout the British Commonwealth , parts of Europe, and the United States. The Second Edition of this valuabl e work wil l strengthen even further the unique position it occupies. Most (395 of its 477 pages of text) of the book is devoted to a general review of the subject . A second part deal s in somewhat more detai l with the procedures used by the author at Long Ashton. The completenes s of treatment of the subject matter is best attested by the number of references . Their listing, with complet e titles and cross-indexing , requires 55 pages, which gives an estimated number of 1,800 references . The earliest reference date noted was 1699, the latest , 1964. They are primarily from Great Britain and the United States, but paper s from German, French, Russian, and Japanes e publications are also included. The section devoted to the historical developmen t of plant culture techniques is much longer than in the First Edition. The book represent s very much more than a historical account ing, however . It provides in great detail, and with numerous drawings where appropriate, information on every aspect of plant nutrition research . Likely problems that might be encountere d are presented , and the advantage s and disadvantage s of many of the procedures employed and material s used are discussed . A very useful feature of the book are the conclusions and summaries given after some of the topics are discusse d in detail. It wil l serve well the needs of both the researche r actively engaged in plant nutrition studies as well as the teacher seeking material for classroom presentation . With one important exception, the headings into which the subject matter is divided are identical to those of the earlier edition. However, many sections have been completel y revised, and the more recent findings have been added to practicall y all of them. A 30-page section on the "Assessmen t of contamination and the limitations of micronutrient deficiency studies" is a new and valuable addition to the Second Edition. Much of the material which was previousl y reviewed by R. E. Thiers and R. L. Mitchell is included in this section, but the results of some of the studies at Long Ashton are also presented . In the reviewer' s opinion two features of the book could be improved. I found that it took some time to get accustome d to the numbering system used for chapters , sections, and subsections , and the designation of topics in the index in this manner.Search iri g for topics in the text designate d by this numbering system is much slower than finding them by page number designation. A second shortcoming of the book is the kind of binding used. Unless the copy I received was not typical, the pages are not bound securel y and consequentl y wil l pull loose quite readily. I hope this is not generall y true as I believe that the book wil l be subject to heavy use in any laborator y where plant nutrition studies are being conducted.—V. V.
