Abstract

The zinc hyperaccumulator plant Arabidopsis halleri is able to naturally accumulate 100-fold higher leaf zinc concentrations when compared with non-accumulator species such as the closely related A. lyrata and A. thaliana, without showing toxicity symptoms. A novel member of the cation diffusion fac...
