Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi play a role in protecting roots of Sophora viciifolia Hance. from Pb damage associated with increased phytochelatin synthase gene expression.

Xu Z1, Ban Y, Li Z, Chen H, Yang R, Tang M.
Environmental science and pollution research international.Environ Sci Pollut Res Int.2014 Jun 25. [Epub ahead of print]
Understanding the influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi on the expressions of the dominant plant-related genes under heavy metal (HM) stress is important for developing strategies to reclaim polluted sites. In this study, we cloned full-length cDNAs of phytochelatin synthase gene (PCS1) and
