Abstract
⺠We introduced a heavy metal resistance gene, ScYCF1, into poplar. ⺠The transgenic poplar was tested in soil taken from a closed mine site. ⺠The transgenic poplar exhibited enhanced growth and reduced toxicity symptoms. ⺠The transgenic poplar accumulated more heavy metal(loid)s than the wild type in mine soil.
