Characterization of Brassica rapa metallothionein and phytochelatin synthase genes potentially involved in heavy metal detoxification.

Brassica rapa is an important leafy vegetable that can potentially accumulate high concentrations of cadmium (Cd), posing a risk to human health. The aim of the present study was to identify cadmium detoxifying molecular mechanisms in B. rapa using a functional cloning strategy. A cDNA library const...
