摘要：

The biogeochemical cycle of sulfur can directly affect the speciation transformation of heavy metals in soils and their accumulation in plants. The toxicity of heavy metals in plants can be alleviated by their complexation with sulfur compounds like phytochelatins or metallothiones,consisting of the major mechanisms of phytodetoxification. Sulfur deficiency is becoming one of the limiting factors that influence Chinese agricultural production. Although the applications of sulfur fertilizer in soil have received much attention in recent years,the interaction mechanism of heavy metal with sulfur metabolism has not been studied extensively. In this paper,we reviewed current research advance on the impact of sulfur on the speciation transformation of soil heavy metals and their accumulation in plants,discussed the effect of sulfur on the detoxification mechanism of heavy metal in plants and provided further research prospective in this field.
