Toxic heavy metals: A bibliographic review of risk assessment, toxicity, and phytoremediation technology
Heavy metal contamination of soil is becoming a life-threatening issue causing serious threat to our ecosystem. These metals reduce the potency of soil and affect the entire environment negatively. In plants, these metals inhibit the rate of photosynthesis, production of major proteins and enzymes....
