About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This volume bringing together a review of the underlying fundamental mechanisms underpinning phytoremediation combined with translational aspects is both timely and of considerable interest. … They are largely well written and give a good summary of the current scientific literature. … I would recommend this volume to undergraduate and postgraduate students, and academic and applied scientists working in the field of phytoremediation. It would be a welcome addition in university libraries, and I will be recommending it to students that I teach and supervise.” (Richard Mithen, Experimental Agriculture, Vol. 49 (1), 2013)Editors and Affiliations
