Genes involved in arsenic transformation and resistance associated with different levels of arsenic-contaminated soils
BACKGROUND: Arsenic is known as a toxic metalloid, which primarily exists in inorganic form [As(III) and As(V)] and can be transformed by microbial redox processes in the natural environment. As(III) is much more toxic and mobile than As(V), hence microbial arsenic redox transformation has a major i...
