| Abstract: | Purpose This work was planned for providing a useful screening tool for the selection of Populus alba clones suitable for phytoremediation techniques. To this aim, we investigated variation in arsenic, cadmium, copper, and
zinc tolerance, accumulation and translocation in three poplar clones through an in vitro screening. Poplars have been widely
proposed for phytoremediation, as they are adaptable to grow on contaminated areas and able to accumulate metals. The investigation
of possible differences among poplar clones in metal tolerance and accumulation deserves to be deeply studied and exploited
for the selection of the more suitable tool for phytoremediation purposes. |
