Gene expression of AnnAt1 in different developmental stages of Arabidopsis thaliana exposed to Pb

The toxicity of Pb, its widespread occurrence and persistence highlight the importance of remediation research. Phytoremediation becomes known as a potential remediation tool because it is technically and economically attractive, compared to conventional remediation technologies. However, there is...

description The toxicity of Pb, its widespread occurrence and persistence highlight the importance of remediation research. Phytoremediation becomes known as a potential remediation tool because it is technically and economically attractive, compared to conventional remediation technologies.
