- Trace elements (heavy metals and metalloids) are among the most widespread contaminants that pose serious threat to all living organisms. Plant and microbial-assisted remediation holds great promise for in situ remediation of trace element contaminated environments. An extended knowledge of plant processes generally involved in the uptake, translocation, storage and detoxification of contaminants, and plant-microbe interactions were essential in developing improved technologies for environmental clean up. Currently, with the initiation of transgenic technologies, great strides have been made in trace element phytoremediation research. In this review, we provide an overview of the current knowledge of how plants cope with trace elements and discuss the development of transgenic plants with improved trace element remediation capabilities. In addition, this review also addresses the recent progress made towards understanding the plant-microbe interactions, especially of endophytic bacteria (natural and genetically engineered), and their contribution in improving the efficiency and versatility of trace element phytoremediation.
