Characterization of an Arabidopsis cadmium-resistant mutant cdr3-1D reveals a link between heavy metal resistance as well as seed development and flowering.

Abstract excerpt

A lot of studies have identified many key genes involved in heavy metal detoxification and tolerance in plants; however, our understanding of its molecular mechanisms is far from complete. To gain insight into the regulatory mechanisms for heavy metal detoxification and tolerance, we performed a mutant screen for identifying Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) cadmium (Cd)-resistant mutants. A Cd-resistant mutant...
