Good Morning Everyone...
I have joined Guru Gobind Singh Inderprastha University as research scholar. I am going through literature review for different areas .. finding my real research interest and the related possible working things. Currently reading some interesting research possibilities for pollution mitigation through the help of nature (plants). if anyone having some related material for the same,..please mail me at simpyenv02@gmail.com. Thank you :)

Arsenic as a food chain contaminant: mechanisms of plant uptake and metabolism and mitigation strategies.
Fang-Jie Zhao, Steve P McGrath, Andrew A Meharg
ABSTRACT Arsenic (As) is an environmental and food chain contaminant. Excessive accumulation of As, particularly inorganic arsenic (As(i)), in rice (Oryza sativa) poses a potential health risk to populations with high rice consumption. Rice is efficient at As accumulation owing to flooded paddy cultivation that leads to arsenite mobilization, and the inadvertent yet efficient uptake of arsenite through the silicon transport pathway. Iron, phosphorus, sulfur, and silicon interact strongly with As during its route from soil to plants. Plants take up arsenate through the phosphate transporters, and arsenite and undissociated methylated As species through the nodulin 26-like intrinsic (NIP) aquaporin channels. Arsenate is readily reduced to arsenite in planta, which is detoxified by complexation with thiol-rich peptides such as phytochelatins and/or vacuolar sequestration. A range of mitigation methods, from agronomic measures and plant breeding to genetic modification, may be employed to reduce As uptake by food crops.
.............. I dont have the full paper. If you get it, pls share
thank you for the related information,..but i am looking for the terrestrial plants and their pollution mitigating phenomenon. if something can found through which methods we employ and test them ?
have a good day !
