Toxicity of Aluminium on Plants Physiological and Metabolic Functions
Author : Abhik Patra, Ravindra Kumar Rekwar, Asik Dutta and Arghya Chattopadhyay
Aluminium (Al) toxicity is one of the major factor that limit plant growth and development in acid soils. About 50% of the world’s potentially arable lands are acidic in nature and Al toxicity occurs at pH <5.5 due to solubilisation of toxic forms of Al into the soil solution. In (µ) molar concentrations of Al inhibits root growth and impairment physiological and metabolic functions of plant. It is important to understand the mechanism of Al toxicity and resistance, for stable food production in future. This article examines our current understanding regarding impact of Al toxicity on plants physiological and metabolic functions.
