Al and Fe heavy metal concentrations in the vegetative and root parts of Dicranopteris linearis, Nephrolepis bifurcata, Stenochlaena palustris and Acrostichum aureum grew in highly weathered soil
Phytoremediation is a plant function that degrades, eliminates, and inactivates potentially hazardous and toxic compounds in the polluted water, soil, and air. In phytoremediation mechanisms, phytodegrading enzymes break down the pollutants taken up by plants (phytodegradation). Additionally, the mi...
