Metals are the part of natural constituents of soil but industrial activities such as mining and smelting of ores, electroplating work, gas exhaust, energy and fuel production, fertilizer and pesticide application, and municipal waste results in enormous amount of increase in their natural concentrations in soil. Hazardous compounds or chemicals such as heavy metals, oils and battery metals from industries and organic solvents are major soil pollutants. These substances get deposited to the soils of the neighboring area and pollute them by changing the chemical and biological properties of soil of that area. The aim of this research was to identify some interesting accumulators which may associate an important biomass production with an effective heavy metal accumulation, absorption and translocation and their tissue culture approach. This research is mainly focused on the ability of some native plants to accumulate and tolerate high concentrations of heavy metals which are often associated in polluted areas. It has been found that Datura inoxia has the capacity to accumulate the heavy metals in its part. The in vitro culture of Datura inoxia shows better response in Lead supplementing M. S. Media. Although lead is a toxic heavy metal for plants, but Datura inoxia shows good response at higher concentration..
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
