Abstract:Arsenic (As) is one of the most toxic metalloid that can enter the food chain through ingestion of As contaminated water or food, posing a serious threat to human health. Among cereals, rice could contain the highest amount of As because of the special growing conditions. Therefore, the importance of the reduction of As concentration in rice is essential. Many studies have been conducted to understand the mechanism of arsenic uptake, accumulation and translocation. The interactions between As and plants are in… Show more
