APPLICATIONS OF PTERIDOPHYTES IN PHYTOREMEDIATION

Journal Title: Current Trends in Natural Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 6

Abstract

It is considered that ferns could present new adaptations to the action of stress factors as a result of the wide geographical spread and the diversity of the habitats in which they vegetate, adaptations that could allow them, among other things, hyper-accumulation of metals. This article aims at a brief overview of the results obtained in experimental research aimed at using pteridophytes in phytoremediation.
