Cadmium's pervasive presence in the soil poses a significant threat to plant ecosystems, impacting food security and human well-being. This comprehensive book explores the multifaceted responses of plants to cadmium toxicity, offering critical insights into the physiological and molecular mechanisms governing these reactions. The edited book delves into the intricate relationship between plants and cadmium, a highly toxic heavy metal. Cadmium contamination in the environment, largely stemming from industrial processes and agricultural practices, poses a significant threat to plant ecosystems and, by extension, human and environmental health. This book offers a comprehensive exploration of how plants respond to the presence of cadmium, shedding light on both the physiological and molecular mechanisms that govern these responses. Written by leading experts in the field, this book provides a holistic understanding of the challenges posed by cadmium contamination and the innovative strategies plants employ to combat its detrimental effects. It encompasses a wide array of topics, from the physiological changes plants undergo under cadmium stress to the genetic and molecular pathways activated in response. Furthermore, it explores the practical potential of phytoremediation, a sustainable approach that harnesses plants' abilities to detoxify contaminated environments. This book is a valuable resource for researchers, scholars, and students in the fields of plant biology, environmental science, and toxicology, offering a deep understanding of the challenges presented by cadmiumcontamination and the innovative strategies that plants employ to adapt and thrive in the face of adversity. With a focus on both fundamental science and practical applications, this edited book offers a comprehensive perspective on a critical issue in modern agriculture, environmental science, and plant biology. 0aPollution. 0aEnvironment.965893 0aToxicology.973969 0aBotanical chemistry.96775914aPollution.24aEnvironmental Sciences.96115524aToxicology.97396924aPlant Biochemistry.9677621 aAftab, Tariq.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9650522 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303173265208iPrinted edition:z978303173267608iPrinted edition:z9783031732683 0aEnvironmental Science and Engineering,x1863-553991807640uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-73266-9  aZDB-2-EES  aZDB-2-SXEE  c65882d65882
