Industrialization and inevitable mining has resulted in the release of some metals in environments, which have numerous industrial roles on one hand and also showed environmental toxicity on other hand. Beryllium is one of them, it has been used in number of industries however its excess use or inappropriate disposal of beryllium resulted in high beryllium accumulation in soil and ground water. This subsequently is affecting our environment and more potentially arable crop production. Beryllium has been extensively studied in humans and reported as toxic metal. In plants, only few studies have been documented toxic effects of beryllium in plants. Moreover, plant products (fruits, grains or other plant parts) could be major source of beryllium toxicity in our food chain therefore it is more imperative to understand how plant can be developed more tolerant to beryllium toxicity. In this short mini-review article, we primarily highlighted and speculated different beryllium uptake, translocation and beryllium storage mechanism in plants. This article provides considerable information for people who are working in identifying and developing heavy metal hyper accumulators plants
