Section overview
Description
Projects of our institute are aiming at elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying plant metal homeostasis, metal tolerance and metal hyperaccumulation. Plants under investigation are Arabidopsis thaliana and its close relative Arabidopsis halleri, which grows, for instance, on medieval mining sites in the Harz mountains.
