Description

This volume provides a synthesis of recent work on evolutionary aspects of metal tolerance in plants.

It presents contributions from scientists with a wide diversity of expertise.

It covers the evolution of heavy metal tolerance in groups of plants, fungi, and protists.

The book discusses the physiological, genetic and molecular aspects of metal tolerances.

It deals with the evolution of populations in metal-contaminated environments.

Several chapters include tolerance in animals in order to place the rest of the book on plants in proper perspective.

This publication is an exciting addition for scientists with both applied and basic interest in metal toxicity and tolerance.

It is of importance to those in vegetation ecology, land reclamation, agronomy, physiology, population ecology, ecological genetics, evolutionary biology and molecular biology.
