Functional aspects of plant secondary metabolites in metal stress tolerance and their importance in pharmacology

Toxic trace metals are ecotoxic due to their high bioaccumulation and toxicity, acting as abiotic stress agents, causing oxidative damage to the plant cells. Plants can recognize these threat signals and activate various defense responses. Enhanced production of secondary metabolites is a vital deto...
