Abstract: In order to effectively reduce the cadmium content in soil and protect human health, it is hoped that an economical and effective method (phytoremediation technology) can be used to control soil cadmium pollution. Therefore, the study on the mechanism of plant absorption and tolerance to heavy metal cadmium has become a hot spot in plant stress physiology research in recent years. The authors reviewed the mechanisms of cadmium uptake, transport and accumulation of plant, as well as the tolerance mechanism of plant to cadmium through cell wall deposition, cell compartmentalization, chelation and antioxidant system protection, so as to provide basic information for better control of soil cadmium pollution through phytoremediation technology in the future.
