It's very good question, we had found the plants growed better under low concentration Cd stress. But we didn't know why it need Cd iron. We want ti found how the plant uptake Cd iron from soil to root, and then transport to stem and leafy, and how to sequestration in vcs.

You can find the results in the paper: Zhang J, Zhang M, Shohag MJI et al. Enhanced expression of SaHMA3 plays critical roles in Cd hyperaccumulation and hypertolerance in Cd hyperaccumulator Sedum alfredii Hance[J]. Planta, 2015: 1-13. According to the different of soil pollution, it need 5-10years.

hyperaccumulation ecotype Sedum can accumulate 9000 μg · g-1 Fresh Weight of Cd and 29000 μg · g-1 Fresh Weight of Zn in stem without obvious symptoms of poisoning

The main potential plant can move heavy metal from soil, so few plants can be used for phyterme.diation

In China and some developing country, quickly industrial get more and more heavy metal pollution, Cadmium and zinc are very likely elements, minerals often associated in nature, mining lead cadmium pollution

in genome size, they have about 50Mb different, and in some protein, such as SaNRAMP6, it just has 3 animo different but this protein is key transporter for cd.

They are about 500 species plants can accumulator different heavy metal In the world, and few plants can accumulator Cd, for I know, just 5-7 species plants.
