Nickel Effects on Growth and Phytolith Yield of Grasses in Contaminated Soils

Nickel Effects on Growth and Phytolith Yield of Grasses in Contaminated Soils

Nickel (Ni) is extremely toxic to plants at high concentrations. Phytoliths have the potential to sequester the heavy metals absorbed by plants and act as a detoxification mechanism for the plant. The authors of the present study aimed to evaluate the effects of Ni on the growth and phytolith yield...
