Enhancing the lead phytostabilization in wetland plant Juncus effusus L. through somaclonal manipulation and EDTA enrichment

We investigated the role of ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) and somaclonal manipulation on improving lead (Pb) phytostabilization in mat rush (Juncus effusus L.). Seedlings were raised from seeds and callus to study variations in Pb uptake and tolerance. The seedlings were treated with 0.5...
