One main strategy to mitigate plant heavy metal contamination is the use of chelating agents to help sequester and immobilize heavy metals in the soil, preventing their uptake by plants. Chelating agents such as EDTA can form stable complexes with metal ions, reducing their availability for plant uptake (Raskin and Ensley, 2000).
