Abstract: Aluminum (A1)toxicity is one of the most deleterious factors for plant growth in acidic soils. However, there is little information about the mechanism s of aluminum toxicity, thus exposing a constraint on carrying out relevant breeding and cultivation programs. In the past decades, many researches had been carried out on aluminum toxicity and tolerant mechanism in plants, and great progress was achieved. This paper reviewed the studies on aluminum toxicity and tolerance in plant. The main fields and projects for further research are also briefly discussed.
