Phytormediation is an exciting new method for controlling andcleaning up hazardous wastes using green plants. This book is thefirst to compile the state of the science and engineering arts inthis rapidly advancing field. Phytormediation:
* Approaches the subject from the perspectives of biochemistry,genetics, toxicology, and pathway analysis.
* Is written by two of the premier experts in the field.
