The Cadmium in Soil and Plants
The hazardous heavy cadmium (Cd) metal deposits into soil through various anthropogenic activities. It is harmful to both animals and plants, causing... -
Human Health Effects of Chronic Cadmium Exposure
Cadmium (Cd) is a hazardous unnecessary transition metal that is harmful to people and animals. Cadmium is naturally prevalent in the environment and... -
Priming, Cd Tolerance, and Phytoremediation
Cadmium is a non-essential toxic soil pollutant with toxic effects on plants, especially crop plants, and can affect human health through... -
Microbial Tolerance Strategies Against Cadmium Toxicity
Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal found in the environment because it is released from natural and anthropogenic sources. Cd is a persistent,... -
Cadmium-Induced Neurotoxicity
Cadmium-induced neurotoxicity has become a growing concern due to its potential adverse effects on the central nervous system. This chapter provides... -
Cadmium Toxicity in Plants and Its Amelioration
Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal primarily released from human industrial activities and agriculture. It contaminates soil and water and then is... -
Speciation, Mobilization, and Toxicity of Cadmium in Soil–Microbe–Plant System: An Overview
The extensive application of cadmium (Cd) in various industrial products results in worldwide contamination. In the first part of this chapter, we... -
Biological Interventions in Bioremediation of Cadmium Poisoning
In recent years, owing to the excessive urbanization and industrial development heavy metals have emerged as pollutants of concern for the... -
Foliar spray of silicon nanoparticles improved the growth and minimized cadmium (Cd) in wheat under combined Cd and water-limited stress
The effects of foliar supply of silicon nanoparticles (Si-NPs) on growth, physiology, and cadmium (Cd) uptake by wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) were...

Antioxidant Defense: A Key Mechanism of Cadmium Tolerance
Cadmium (Cd) is a persistent soil pollutant, with high toxicity to plants and humans. Its availability to plants is affected by several factors,... -
Phytoremediation of Cadmium-Contaminated Soil
Cadmium is a toxic metal. Its accumulation is increasing with increasing urbanization and industrialization. Thus, there is a needed for the... -
Effects of pH and phosphate on cadmium adsorption onto goethite and a paddy soil: experiments and NOM-CD model
PurposePhosphate is one of the most frequently used fertilizers to promote the crop growth, whereas the impact of phosphate on the adsorption...
