Phytoremediation of POPs is indirect and/or direct
Planting with inoculum enhances rizho-remediation
A cost effective �green phyto-technology�
Engineered rhizo-remediation could be a new approach

1. Research and development of phytoremediation are just beginning;
2. Advances in phytoremediation appear in several aspects: Theory, Research and Practice;
3. Using natural green resources to tackle natural environmental pollution will be encouraged.
