Abstract excerpt
Castor, a non-food, dedicated bioenergy crop, has immense potential to be used for phytoremediation/revegetation of heavy metal contaminated sites. In the previous study, we identified arsenate [As(V)]-tolerant (WM) and As(V)-sensitive (GCH 2) genotypes of castor (Ricinus communis L.) with differential accumulation and tolerance of arsenic [As]. The role of thiols in As(V) toxicity and tolerance mechanism in the...
