Biostimulants' Role in Alleviation of Metal-Induced Toxicity in Plants
View through CrossRef
Climate change is considered as one of the major constrain reducing the productivity of crops. The soil contamination is increasing gradually due to the several factors such as brackish water, urbanization, and industrial effluents. Phytoremediation is considered as effective remedy for the removal toxic substances form the soil focusing on sustainable growth and higher yield. However, current chapter aimed to evaluate the impact of biostimulants in mitigation of metal toxicity in plants. Biostimulants are widely used in agriculture to increase crop yield and resilience against various stresses. Moreover, recent research has shown that biostimulants can lessen the harmful effects of contaminants on plants, boosting some species' phytoremediation effectiveness. Biostimulants composed of humus, protein and amino acid hydrolysate, inorganic salts, microbes, seaweed, plant extracts, and fungi are used on crops against metal toxicity. Conclusively, biostimulants are effective way to cope adverse effects of metal toxicity in plants.
