Transgenic approach to improve Se-phytoremediation and biofortification. Overexpression of ST, APS, APR, Cys–γ–synthase, SMT genes have shown enhanced Se accumulation and tolerance in different plants hence this technique can be used for Se phytoremediation and biofortification in Se-toxic and Se-deficient regions, respectively. ST, sulfur transporter; APS, ATP sulfurylase; APR, APS reductase; Cys–γ–synthase, Cystathionine–γ–synthase; SMT, Selenocysteine methyl transferase.
