Phytoremediation of metal contaminated soils requires high-biomass plants exhibiting tol- erance to and accumulation of metal contaminants. However, verylittle is known about the genes controlling these traits. In order to better understand this, Arabidopsis halleri ssp.

halleri(L.) O’Kane and Al-Shehbaz, a naturallyselected zinc and cadmium tolerant plant species capable of hyperaccumulating both metals, is a suitable model plant. To date, the scarcityof sequence information fromA. halleriis still limiting its use as a model organism.

Here we report 128 transcript-derived sequence fragments (TDFs) identified in a cDNA- AFLP approach aimed at identifying metal-regulated transcripts in roots. In addition we show that in roots of A. halleri, transcript levels ofAhPDR11, encoding an ATP-binding- cassette (ABC) transport protein, are slightlyinduced in response to metal exposure.
