Fluoride contamination of soil and phytoremediation (review)

On basis of modern literature the mechanisms for fluoride input, translocation and accumulation in soil, plants and animals are briefly observed. The influence of fluoride to plants and animals is viewed. It is shown the plant species with hyperaccumulation of fluoride potentially can provide a phytoremediation process. Some ways for increasing phytoremediation efficacy under fluoride soil contamination are discussed.
