Abstract: For many years, the studies resistance of plants to heavy metals have been focused on the metabolizable regulation and control. It was found that the rhizosphere had a great influence on resistance of plants to heavy metals, and recent studies were focmed on the relationship of mycorrhizal fungi and roots exudates resistance of plants to heavy metals. This paper reviewed the advance of study on the effects of mycorrhizal fungi and roots exudates on resistance of plants to heavy metals and the possible mechanism, and previewed the study and application foreground in this field.
