Mechanistic insight on boron-mediated toxicity in plant vis-a-vis its mitigation strategies: a review.

The physio-biochemical and molecular responses and mechanism of B uptake under its toxic condition have been illustrated. The spatial distribution of boron under its toxic condition and its accumulation in the plant might be regulated with sugar alcohols (polyols). This review throws light on the elevated level of B in the soil-plant system and provides management strategies for alleviating B toxicity in the plant.
