The goal of this study was to assess the phytoremediation potential of transgenic Indian mustard plants. The increase in metal accumulation as a result of these genetic engineering approaches is typically two-to-threefold more metal per plant, which potentially enhances phytoremediation efficiency by the same factor. The significance of this finding is that it is the first to demonstrate an enhanced capability of transgenic plants to phytoextract environmental soil containing a mixture of metals. Plant species have been recently used for heavy metal accumulation and most of the studies have been done on hyperaccumulator tolerant species. This study is a part of a series of studies that attempt to evaluate the phytoextraction potential of transgenic species of Brassica juncea which are commonly found with high biomass that are harmless, non-edible in nature.
