Chelation by histidine inhibits the vacuolar sequestration of nickel in roots of the hyperaccumulator Thlaspi caerulescens.

* The mechanisms of enhanced root to shoot metal transport in heavy metal hyperaccumulators are incompletely understood. Here, we compared the distribution of nickel (Ni) over root segments and tissues in the hyperaccumulator Thlaspi caerulescens and the nonhyperaccumulator Thlaspi arvense, and inve...
