Heavy metals in agricultural soils pose a major threat to food safety and human health. Among all heavy metals, cadmium (Cd) is the most problematic with contamination rates of 7% arable land 5.3% facility vegetable growing China. In order employ "remediation while producing" mode contaminated soils, many remediation approaches have been investigated unsatisfactory results. Recently, grafting has reported potential being environmentally friendly, efficient, widely applicable low-cost for soil production. A review recent advances mechanisms Cd accumulation plants as influenced by was conducted, including processes root uptake translocation aboveground tissues, xylem/phloem loading. The impact on numerous aspects associated found extend from rhizosphere microbial community, rootstock genetic variation, rootstock-scion interaction plant responses. By understanding detoxification, it provided theoretical basis selection rootstocks low its application an effective phytoremediation method soils.
