Research Advances in Uptake, Metabolism and Toxicity of Antimony in Plants

Abstract

Abstract: Antimony (Sb) is a toxic carcinogenic element. In some areas of China, soil, water, and agricultural products have been severely polluted by Sb because of particular natural and artificial factors. High levels of Sb in the environment can threaten the health of humans via the food chain. To protect the environment and human health, we must investigate the behavioural characteristics of Sb in plants and the biosphere. Here, we summarize recent progress in research on the mechanisms of absorption, metabolism and toxicity of Sb in plants. Attention must be paid to (1) migration and transformation behaviours in the biosphere; (2) mechanisms of uptake, transport, metabolism and toxicity in plants, especially in crops; and (3) technologies for phytoremediation of contaminated soil and water.
