  • O. muralis has been identified as a hyperaccumulator of Ni using X-ray diffraction, gravimetric analysis, and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy.

    “O. muralis has been identified as a hyperaccumulator of Ni using X-ray diffraction (XRD), gravimetric analysis, and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) (Zhang et al., 2016).”

    From Plant hyperaccumulators: a state-of-the-art review on mechanism of heavy metal transport and sequestration (2025) · cites this paper as Zhang et al., 2016

    The Introduction and Conclusions identify Alyssum murale (A. murale) as a nickel hyperaccumulator, but our copy does not identify the claimed O. muralis or establish that the names refer to the same plant. Section 2.7 says XRD and ICP-AES were used to analyze biomass and ashes, while XRD, ICP-AES, and gravimetric analysis together characterized the resulting salt crystals—not to identify the plant as a hyperaccumulator.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
