Welcome to the

Society for Research on Trace Metal Metabolism in Plants, z.s.
- PLANTMETALS Society!


Recognizing the critical importance of research for sustainable societal and economic development, the founding members, representing the field of trace metal metabolism in plants, have established the Society for Research on Trace Metal Metabolism in Plants. Their goal is to advance both fundamental and applied research in this area, with a long-term vision of benefiting the environment, enhancing food quality, and ensuring food safety.

This initiative seeks to continue the efforts of the COST Action PLANTMETALS under the same name to the extent possible without the direct support of the  COST Association

Please find details in the section "Objectives" of this webpage and in our Statutes (available in English or Czech - the society was registered by the chair in Czech Republic as Společnost pro vızkum metabolismu stopovıch kovů v rostlinách, z. s., identification number: 223 52 015)
