Abstract: Azolla is a floating aquatic fern, having amazing capacity for concentrating toxic heavy metals. Metallothioneins (MTs) and phytochelatins (PCs) are well-defined heavy metal-binding ligands in plants. Bioaccumulation potential of different Azolla species varies according to… read more here.
