Olá! Concordo com quase todo o da entrada, há que corrigir a redaçom na parte de froito e sementes. O que tem a forma de espátula com entalhe apical som os froitos (que se chamam "silículas"), mas as sementes nom tenhem nada de especial. Olha esta foto minha dos froitos dumha Noccaea caerulescens

Pour grandir, les plantes récupèrent divers éléments dans les sols. Certaines d’entre elles sont capables d’en extraire ou d’y dégrader des substances polluantes : c’est le principe de la phytoremédiation.

A Philippine plant, Rinorea niccolifera, absorbs extreme nickel levels, up to 18,000 mg/kg in its leaves. This rare hyperaccumulator could unlock sustainable “phytomining,” turning plants into tools for metal recovery & soil cleanup. #RinoreaNiccolifera #TheLolgic #Philippines

That's where "phytomining" enters the picture. This nascent industry is using special metal-accumulating plants to develop a less destructive way to mine--or should we say farm?--metals.

Phytomining plant biomass: hyperaccumulators of arsenic, cadmium, cerium, copper, cobalt, lanthanum, manganese, neodymium, nickel, selenium, thallium, and zinc, up to 5% of plant weight.

More #Phyllanthaceae strangeness! Many species of Phyllanthus are hyperaccumulators of nickel (meaning they store Ni in their tissues at concentrations very much greater than those of the surrounding soils).
