Increased cadmium tolerance and accumulation by plants expressing bacterial arsenate reductase

•  Cadmium (Cd) is a major environmental pollutant that poses a serious threat to natural ecosystems. However, most initial attempts to engineer phytoremediation of Cd have not succeeded in developing sufficient Cd tolerance for vigorous plant growth. •  We found that the bacterial arsenate reductas...
