Plant that is resistant to heavy metal fontaminated media.

Abstract

[EN]The invention relates to a plant with a high capacity to accumulate heavy metals in the aerial part thereof and the use of same in recovering heavy metal-contaminated media. Said plants have been genetically modified to be resistant to heavy metal-contaminated media and to have the capacity, in said contaminated media, to absorb the heavy metals, said metals being accumulated in the plant leaves, in order to recover the contaminated medium. The genetic modification was based on identifying plant genes involved in the heavy metal detoxification processes and overexpressing said genes, thereby producing transformed plants that can be used in phytoremediation processes. [ES] La presente invención se refiere a una planta con una elevada capacidad de acumular metales pesados en su parte aérea y su empleo en la recuperación de medios contaminados con metales pesados. Las plantas han sido modificadas genéticamente para ser resistentes a medios contaminados por metales pesados y para en esos medios contaminados tener la capacidad de absorber los metales pesados, acumulándolos en sus hojas, para recuperar el medio contaminado.La modificación genética se ha basado en la identificación de genes de plantas implicados en los procesos de detoxificación de metales pesados y la sobreexpresión de los mismos dando lugar a plantas transformadas susceptibles de ser utilizadas en procesos de fitorremediación.
