Plants can act as bio-indicators and aid in phytoremediation of environmental pollutants. Advanced

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Plant Biology
  • Biotechnology

Background:

  • Industrial development causes environmental pollution via xenobiotic organic chemicals.
  • Plants serve as early bio-indicators and possess phytoremediation capabilities for contaminated sites.
  • Current methods for evaluating plant-based remediation rely on standard chemical and biochemical procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the potential of "omic" technologies for identifying molecular markers in plants.
  • To improve the understanding and optimization of innate phytoremediation activities in selected plant species.
  • To enhance the screening capabilities for identifying plants with superior detoxification abilities.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing transcriptomics to analyze messenger RNA expression profiles and identify gene clusters.
