Anthropogenic activities pose a more significant threat to the environment than natural
phenomena by contaminating the environment with heavy metals. Cadmium (Cd), a highly …

Since its discovery, cadmium (Cd) has played an important role in industry and brought
certain conveniences to mankind, used for electroplating and making rechargeable …

Microplastics (MPs) co-occur widely with diverse contaminants in soils. However, few data
are available on their impacts on soil chemical and microbial properties of heavy metal …

Cadmium (Cd) is a major environmental contaminant due to its widespread industrial use.
Cd contamination of soil and water is rather classical but has emerged as a recent problem …

Both microplastics (MPs) and cadmium (Cd) are common contaminants in soil-rice systems,
but their combined effects remain unknown. Thereby, we explored the effects of three MPs …

Microplastics (MPs) as emerging contaminants have attracted attention worldwide, but little
is known on their interactions with metallic contaminants in soil-plant systems. Here, we …

Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic heavy metal that adversely affects humans, animals, and
plants, even at low concentrations. It is widely distributed and has both natural and …

Zinc (Zn) plays an important role in the physiology and biochemistry of plants due to its
established essentiality and toxicity for living beings at certain Zn concentration ie, deficient …

Copper (Cu) is an essential metal for human, animals and plants, although it is also
potentially toxic above supra-optimal levels. In plants, Cu is an essential cofactor of …

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in paddy fields is a serious health concern because of its high
toxicity and widespread pollution. Recently, much progress has been made in elucidating …
