1. The consumption of arsenic is toxic to most biota. However, a noctuid caterpillar was recently reported feeding on a plant known to hyperaccumulate arsenic. 2. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of arsenic‐rich Pteris vittata L. consumption by Callopistria floridensis G., and measure differences in arsenic concentrations at various stages of development (larval and adult), and associated with exuviae and frass. 3. Callopistria floridensis accumulated extraordinary concentrations of arsenic. The relative accumulation of arsenic was highest in exuviae and larvae. Larvae invariably preferred P. vittata grown on low arsenic soil to P. vittata grown on higher soil arsenic concentrations, and appeared able to selectively forage on lower arsenic concentrations within each treatment. 4. These findings show that C. floridensis is tolerant of arsenic, and successfully develops to adulthood containing elevated concentrations of arsenic. Callopistria floridensis represents the only known terrestrial animal capable of accumulating arsenic, and may have developed novel physiological and behavioural adaptations to regulate the negative effects of arsenic. 相似文献

Cadmium (Cd) accumulation by terrestrial higher plants is an intriguing phenomenon that may be exploited for phytoextraction of Cd-contaminated soils. Characterizing the physiological processes responsible for elevated concentrations of Cd in shoots is a first step towards a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying Cd accumulation in plants and may eventually improve the efficiency of phytoextraction. Woody species that can accumulate Cd have been recently recommended as good candidates for phytoextraction of Cd-contaminated soils. However, little is known about the mechanisms of Cd accumulation by woody species. In an attempt to understand the physiological processes contributing to Cd accumulation in woody species, Cd uptake and translocation by a novel tropical Cd-accumulating tree, star fruit (Averrhoa carambola) were characterized and compared with those of a non-Cd-accumulating tree (Clausena lansium). Our results showed that A. carambola had higher Cd uptake and root-to-shoot translocation efficiencies than C. lansium, which might account for its greater Cd-accumulating capacity. Furthermore, Cd accumulation by A. carambola was not significantly affected by zinc (Zn), whereas Zn accumulation was greatly lowered by Cd. This phenomenon could not be fully explained by a simple competition between Cd2+ and Zn2+, implying the existence of a transport system with a preference for Cd over Zn. Collectively, our results indicate that A. carambola has noteworthy physiological traits associated with accumulation of Cd to high levels. 相似文献

The integral membrane protein Thlaspi goesingense metal tolerance protein 1 (TgMTP1) has been suggested to play an important role in Zn hyperaccumulation in T. goesingense . Here, we show that the TgMTP1 protein is accumulated to high levels at the vacuolar membrane in shoot tissue of T. goesingense . TgMTP1 is likely to act in the transport of Zn into the vacuole, enhancing both Zn accumulation and tolerance. By specifically expressing TgMTP1 in Arabidopsis thaliana shoots, we show that TgMTP1, localized at the vacuolar membrane, can drive the enhanced shoot accumulation of Zn by initiating a systemic Zn deficiency response. The systematic response includes increased expression of Zn transporters ( ZIP3 , ZIP4 , ZIP5 and ZIP9 ) in both shoot and root tissue. Furthermore, shoot-specific accumulation of TgMTP1 at the vacuolar membrane also leads to increased resistance to Zn in A. thaliana , probably through enhanced Zn compartmentalization in the vacuole. Such evidence leads to the conclusion that the high levels of TgMTP1 at the vacuolar membrane in shoot tissue of the Zn hyperaccumulator T. goesingense play a role in both Zn tolerance and enhanced Zn uptake and accumulation, via the activation of a systemic Zn deficiency response. 相似文献

Assessing the potential for zinc and cadmium phytoremediation with the hyperaccumulator Thlaspi caerulescens 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Thlaspi caerulescens is a Zn and Cd hyperaccumulator, and has been tested for its phytoremediation potential. In this paper we examine the relationships between the concentrations of Zn and Cd in soil and in T. caerulescens shoots, and calculate the rates of Zn and Cd extraction from soil. Using published data from field surveys, field and pot experiments, we show that the concentrations of Zn and Cd in the shoots correlate with the concentrations of Zn and Cd in soils in a log-linear fashion over three orders of magnitude. There is little systematic difference between different populations of T. caerulescens in the relationship between soil and plant Zn concentrations. In contrast, populations from southern France are far superior to those from other regions in Cd accumulation. Bioaccumulation factors (plant to soil concentration ratio) for Zn and Cd decrease log-linearly with soil metal concentration. Model calculations show that phytoremediation using T. caerulescens is feasible when soil is only moderately contaminated with Zn and Cd, and the phytoremediation potential is better for Cd than for Zn if the populations from southern France are used. Recent progress in the understanding of the mechanisms of Zn and Cd uptake by T. caerulescens is also reviewed. 相似文献
