Abstract:

This study briefly describes the impact of pollution by five heavy metal elements, namely cadmium, chromium, arsenic, vanadium, and copper, on the growth and quality of Lycium barbarum and other crops. It summarizes the mechanisms of L. barbarum to cope with the stress of cadmium, chromium, arsenic, and other five heavy metals, as well as the research progress on detoxification of heavy metal stress at the subcellular level in L. barbarum. The study points out the existing problems in current research on L. barbarum response to heavy metal stress and future research directions, such as the migration and transformation of heavy metal content between soil and various parts of the L. barbarum, including roots, stems, branches, leaves, and fruits, the response mechanisms of L. barbarum to heavy metal stress, and molecular mechanisms, in order to provide references for the application and improvement of clean cultivation of L. barbarum.

Key words: Lycium barbarum, heavy metal, stress, soil, response mechanism
