Evaluation of the Boron Tolerant Grass, Puccinellia distans, as an Initial Vegetative Cover for the Phytorestoration of a Boron-Contaminated Mining Site in Southern California

Land damaged by boron (B) mining should be restored to its natural state with a zero net impact on biodiversity. In an earlier study (Environ. Sci. Technol. 2010, 44, 7089–7095), we characterized a Turkish ecotype of the grass, Puccinellia distans, which exhibited extreme tolerance to B. Here we eva...
