Plant Physiology
Hyperaccumulators are plant species that have the remarkable ability to absorb and accumulate exceptionally high concentrations of specific heavy metals and other toxic elements from the soil into their tissues. This unique trait makes them invaluable for cleaning up contaminated environments, as they can effectively remove harmful substances through a process known as phytoremediation, helping to restore soil health and prevent the spread of pollutants.
