What is it about?
Phytoremediation potential of Eclipta prostrata (L) L. as a phytostabilizer is assessed through an experimentation of growing this fast-growing and high-biomass-yielding tropical species in artificially contaminated soils and found that it accumulates the heavy metal nickel in its roots

Why is it important?
Discovery of high-biomass-yielding and fast-growing species are essential to the most eco-friendly soil decontamination techniques known as phytoremediation
Perspectives
Heavy metal, Nickel accumulation pattern of the plant and its biochemical responses to the metal in the soil in different levels of metal contaminations in the soil for a period of 30 days of growth is explained
