25 records of plants. [1]: 891 [2] Al: Hydrangea spp. Hydrangea (a.k.a. Hortensia) Al: Aluminium concentrations in young leaves, mature leaves, old leaves, and roots were found to be 8.0, 9.2, 14.4, and 10.1 mg g1, respectively. [3] Melastoma malabathricum L. Blue Tongue, or Native Lassiandra: P competes with Al and reduces uptake. [4] Al
Alternatively, when very dilute, metal complexes are often innocuous. [4] This method uses plants to extract and lower the concentration of toxic heavy metals in the soil. [4] An aspirational method of decontamination of heavy metals is phytoremediation or bioremediation, but these approaches have solved few real world problems. Toxic metals ...
Phytotoxicity describes any adverse effects on plant growth, physiology, or metabolism caused by a chemical substance, such as high levels of fertilizers, herbicides, heavy metals, or nanoparticles. [1] General phytotoxic effects include altered plant metabolism, growth inhibition, or plant death. [2]
The plant is poisonous, containing cardiostimulant compounds such as adonidin and aconitic acid. [42] Aesculus hippocastanum: horse-chestnut, buckeye, conker tree Sapindaceae: All parts of the raw plant are poisonous due to saponins and glycosides such as aesculin, causing nausea, muscle twitches, and sometimes paralysis. [43] Agave spp.
Elsewhere in this region native indium, aluminium, tantalum, tellurium, and other metals have been reported. [citation needed] Native lead [17] is quite rare but somewhat more widespread, as are tin, [18] mercury, [19] arsenic, [20] antimony, [21] and bismuth. [22] Native chromium has been found in small grains in Sichuan, China [23] and other ...

Metal toxicity is tolerated by plant species that are native to metalliferous soils. Exclusion, in which plants resist undue metal uptake and transport, and absorption and sequestration, in which plants pick up vast quantities of metal and pass it to the shoot, where it is accumulated, are the two basic methods for metal tolerance.
