Chromium occurrence in the environment and methods of its speciation.
J. Kotaś,Z. Stasicka +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that knowledge of interconversion processes between different Cr forms is necessary to understand its behaviour and role in the environment, in addition to enabling reliable Cr speciation analysis to be performed.

Phytoremediation of soil metals
TL;DR: Little molecular understanding of plant activities critical to phytoremediation has been achieved, but recent progress in characterizing Fe, Cd and Zn uptake by Arabidopsis and yeast mutants indicates strategies for developing transgenic improved phytOREmediation cultivars for commercial use.
