Certain HMs, although serving essential micronutrients, are required in smaller quantities for plant growth. However, when present higher concentrations, they become very toxic. Several studies have shown that balance out the harmful effects complex systems needed at molecular, physiological, biochemical, cellular, tissue, whole levels. This could lead more crops being grown. Our review focused on HMs' resources, occurrences, implications. will also look how plants react HMs affect seed performance well benefits provide plants.
