  abstract = {{L}ead ({P}b) is one of the most widespread heavy metal contaminant in soils. {I}t is highly toxic to living organisms. {P}b has no biological function but can cause morphological, physiological, and biochemical dysfunctions in plants. {P}lants have developed a wide range of tolerance mechanisms that are activated in response to {P}b exposure. {P}b affects plants primarily through their root systems. {P}lant roots rapidly respond either (i) by the synthesis and deposition of callose, creating a barrier that stops {P}b entering (ii) through the uptake of large amounts of {P}b and its sequestration in the vacuole accompanied by changes in root growth and branching pattern or (iii) by its translocation to the aboveground parts of plant in the case of hyperaccumulators plants. {H}ere were view the interactions of roots with the presence of {P}b in the rhizosphere and the effect of {P}b on the physiological and biochemical mechanisms of root development.},
