• Transgenic Trees Spread Mercury Poisoning: Is moving mercury from place to place really remediation?
• 02.01.2005 - Transgenic plants remove more selenium from contaminated soil than wild-type plants, new field tests show: In the first field trial of plants genetically tweaked to absorb more contaminants, researchers found that the transgenic plants handily beat out their wild-type counterparts. The results raised hopes that the plants might become a viable alternative for cleaning up polluted soil.
• Development of transgenic yellow poplar for mercury phytoremediati on - Nature Biotechnology: We examined the ability of yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) tissue cultures and plantlets to express modified mercuric reductase (merA) gene constructs. Mercury-resist ant bacteria express merA to convert highly toxic, ionic mercury, Hg(ll), to much less toxic, elemental mercury, Hg(O).
• Fighting pollution the poplar way: Trees to clean up Indiana site: Purdue University researchers are collaborating with Chrysler LLC in a project to use [transgenic] poplar trees to eliminate pollutants from a contaminated site in north-central Indiana.
