Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, selenium, sulfur, silica-gel and biochar reduce arsenic uptake in plant biomass and improve nutritional quality in Pisum sativum

M. Z. Alam, M. A. Hoque, G. J. Ahammed, L. C. Boggs

This study shows that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, selenium, silica-gel, and sulfur reduce arsenic uptake in pea plants and improve nutritional quality in high arsenic soil.

Hemozoin produced by mammals confers heme tolerance

R. Pek, X. Yuan, N. Rietzschel, J. Zhang, L. Jackson, E. Nishibori, A. Ribeiro, W. Simmons, J. Jagadeesh, H. Sugimoto, M. Z. Alam, L. Garrett, M. Haldar, M. Ralle, J. Phillips, , I. Hamza

The paper shows that mice lacking HRG1 accumulate excess heme in macrophages, which they tolerate by forming hemozoin, a process previously only observed in blood-feeding parasites.

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus (AMF) and reduction of arsenic uptake in lentil crops

M. Z. Alam, M. A. Hoque, R. McGee, L. C. Boggs

This study investigates how Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus (AMF) reduces arsenic uptake in lentil crops, showing improved biomass and reduced arsenic accumulation in roots, shoots, and pods.
