- Title
The Potential of Plants to Absorb Xenobiotics.
- Authors
Capozzi, Fiore; Spagnuolo, Valeria
- Abstract
This document discusses the potential of plants to absorb non-biodegradable substances called xenobiotics, which can accumulate in the environment and harm ecosystems. It presents recent scientific research on using plants for biomonitoring, phytorestoration, and phytoremediation. The studies include the use of moss and mangrove plants as bioindicators, using plants to clean up oil spills, and examining the effects of nutrients and xenobiotics on plant health. The research emphasizes the importance of understanding how plants interact with pollutants to minimize risks to ecosystems. This collection of articles explores the use of plants in monitoring and mitigating pollution in the environment, providing valuable data for future research.
