Current approaches in horticultural crops to mitigate the effect of metal stress

Original language description

Metals being one od the essential ingredients for plant growth and development play a dual role. At the optimum level, they intend to improve the plants nutritional level and yield while in access being toxic displays, direct and indirect adverse impacts resulting in lower quality and quantiti. Nowadays due to industrialization and modernization, metal contamination in agricultural land (soil!) is a formeost concern since it directly affects the human health. Most of the edible crops, including tubers, fruits, and vegetables, accumulate metals at the toxic levels since they are grown on metal-contaminated soil. Taking this into consideration, here we address different approeaches in horticultural crops to mitigate the effect of metal stress. The use of various chemical immobilization materials such as organic, inorganic, and nanoparticles is generally used approaches. However, eco-friendly and cost-effective microbe-assisted bioremediation and phytoremediation employing hyperaccumulator plants to remove the specific metal contaminants from the soil and water are successful. Additionally, we will discuss metal uptake and transport machanisms, including important genes involved in metal accumulation and detoxification. Such genes might be useful in future researech by improvig phytoremediation potential using genetic transformation to mitigate the metal stress in plants.
