Abstract: | The beneficial as well as toxic effects of chromium with regard to its absorption, translocation and accumulation in different parts of plants were reviewed. High concentrations of chromium exhibited severe chlorosis, necrosis and a host of other growth abnormalities and anatomical disorders. The regulation of the mineral metabolism, enzyme activity and other metabolic processes by chromium in plants was discussed. |
