Epigenetic Control of Plant Response to Heavy Metal Stress: A New View on Aluminum Tolerance

High concentrations of heavy metal (HM) ions impact agronomic staple crop production in acid soils (pH ≤ 5) due to their cytotoxic, genotoxic, and mutagenic effects. Among cytotoxic ions, the trivalent aluminum cation (Al(3+)) formed by solubilization of aluminum (Al) into acid soils, is one of the...
