Synergistic effects of indole-3-acetic acid and chelators on phytoextraction of heavy metals by Ricinus communis L. cultivated in a mine-contaminated site
Plant growth regulators (PGRs) and chelators can remediate heavy metals (HMs) in mine-contaminated sites; however, their combined use may be more effective. This work aimed to identify the optimal combination of diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and citric acid (CA), as...
