Physiological and biochemical analysis of mechanisms underlying cadmium tolerance and accumulation in turnip

The capacity of plants to accumulate cadmium (Cd) is significant for phytoremediation of Cd-polluted soils. Turnips cultivated in China include species featuring high Cd accumulation and some of these plants act as Cd hyperaccumulator landraces. These plants can accumulate over 100 mg Cd kg−1 dry we...
