The involvement of cyclotides in the heavy metal tolerance of Viola spp.
Abstract The Violaceae family is rich in metal-tolerant species and species producing cyclic peptides (cyclotides) that are linked to the resistance to biotic factors. Plants that inhabit areas polluted with heavy metals have developed various mechanisms of tolerance. To test the role of cyclotides...
