Abstract
Strontium (Sr) is one of the plentiful elements of earth’s crust. However, human activities related to nuclear reactor, nuclear weapons explosions and accidental fallouts release substantial amount of radiostrontium. Among radioisotopes, 90Sr is the most important, which affects organisms, including plants, and enters into the food chain. 90Sr is a β-emitter and produces 90Y and 90Zr through succeeding radioactive decay. Further, 90Sr bear a resemblance to calcium affecting plants uptake of Ca and is extremely injurious inducing metabolic imbalances within the tissues. Sr uptake by plants is therefore a crucial matter to understand the scope of phytoremediation. Several external factors including soil properties and availability of the element at plant root zone determine the mobility and uptake of 90Sr by plants. However, selected plants should qualitatively have equal efficiency of high uptake and high biomass production. Plants’ native anti-stress physiological mechanisms play an important role in this issue. This chapter deals with the probable issues for overall phytoremediation strategies of radiostrontium to ameliorate the contaminated soil in an eco-friendly manner.
