Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Pilar Garcia-Gonzalo"
- Pilar Garcia-Gonzalo's research primarily focuses on the ecological and physiological responses of the plant Silene vulgaris to chromium (Cr) contamination, with particular emphasis on understanding the mechanisms of tolerance and potential applications in phytoremediation technologies.
- One significant study highlights the role of polycarboxylic compounds, such as citric and malic acids, in chelating and mobilizing chromium within the plant and rhizosphere, contributing to the understanding of how these compounds might enhance plant resilience in polluted soils.
- Another investigation explores the eco-physiological response of different genotypes of Silene vulgaris to varying concentrations of chromium VI, aiming to assess the plant's viability for managing chromium-polluted environments effectively.
