Secondary metabolites produced by plants are a rich group of bioactive compounds with many health-promoting properties, which can be used in various sectors of industry including pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. One of the problems with application of plant derived compounds are their low levels in plant tissues. Thus, new methods aiming at stimulation of the biosynthesis of plant metabolites are being investigated. In recent years several articles on the use of metals as elicitors have been published. Present review presents the examples of the application of copper (Cu), zin (Zn), cadmium (Cd) and selected nanoparticles as elicitors.
