The potential suitability of Eucalyptus camaldulensis for Cd phytoextraction was tested in a hydroponic study. Saplings were exposed to 4.5 and 89 μM Cd for one month, with and without EDTA and s,s-EDDS at 0.1, 1, and 5 mM. The saplings’ growth was not affected at the 4.5 μM Cd concentration, yet it decreased 3-fold at 89 μM, and almost all the Cd taken up was immobilized in the roots, reaching 360 and 5300 mg Cd kg?1, respectively (approximately 75% of which was non-washable in acid). The respective Cd root-to-shoot translocation factors were 0.14 and ≈5*10?4. At 0.1 mM concentration, EDTA and EDDS had no effect or even a positive effect on the saplings growth. This was reversed at 1 mM, and the chelants became lethal at the 5 mM concentration. At 89 μM Cd in the growth medium, 0.1 mM EDTA increased Cd translocation into the shoots by almost 10-fold, however it strongly reduced Cd content inside the roots. This hydroponic study indicates the feasibility of E. camaldulensis use for cleanup Cd-contaminated soils at environmental concentrations, both for site stabilization (phytostabilization) and gradual remediation (phytoextraction). EDTA was shown to be much more efficient in enhancing Cd translocation than s,s-EDDS. 相似文献

The cadmium (Cd) resistant bacteria were isolated from soils of Damanganga river, Vapi, and identified 11 potential Cd resistant bacteria based on 16S rDNA sequences. The Cd resistant bacteria belonged to four different genera: Providencia spp., Morganella sp., Stenotrophomonas sp., and Bacillus spp. The assessment of plant growth-promoting (PGP) parameters revealed that the Cd tolerant bacteria showed one or more PGP properties. Further, a pot experiment was conducted to elucidate the effects of Cd resistant bacteria on the plant growth and the uptake of Cd by Sesbania bispinosa. The bacterized seedlings recorded 36.0–74.8% and 21.2–32.9% higher root and shoot lengths, respectively, in Cd amended soil compared with control. The Cd mobilization in the root of S. bispinosa by microbial inoculants ranged from 0.02 ± 0.01 to 1.11 ± 0.06 ppm. The enhanced concentrations of Cd accumulation in S. bispinosa roots correspond to the effect of the bacterial strains on metal mobilization in soil. The present observations showed that the Cd resistant strains protect the plants against the inhibitory effects of Cd, probably due to the production of PGP properties. The present results provided a new insight into the phytoremediation of Cd contaminated soil. 相似文献

Among the technologies used to recuperate cadmium (Cd) contaminated soils, phytoextraction are particularly important, where the selection of suitable plants is critical to the success of the soil remediation. Thus, the objectives of this study were to evaluate the responses of jack-bean and sorghum to Cd supply and to quantify Cd accumulation by these species grown in hydroponic culture. The plants were subjected to 0, 15, 30, or 60 μmol Cd L?1 in the nutrient solution, and gas exchange, plant growth and Cd accumulation were measured at 25 days after starting Cd treatments. The Cd supply severely reduced growth of shoots and roots in both species. In jack-bean, Cd decreased photosynthesis by 56–86%, stomatal conductance by 59–85% and transpiration by 48–80%. The concentrations and amounts of Cd accumulated in the plant tissues were proportional to the metal supply in the nutrient solution. Sorghum was more tolerant than jack-bean to Cd toxicity, but the latter showed a greater metal concentration and accumulation in the shoot. Therefore, jack-bean would be more suitable than sorghum for use in Cd phytoremediation programs based on phytoextraction. 相似文献

The chemical extraction of As and heavy metals from contaminated soils, sampled from the Geopoong and Keumpoong mines in South Korea, was investigated under subcritical conditions. Soil samples from the abandoned mines were heavily contaminated with As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn. The extent of metal removed from the contaminated soils by extractants varied according to the chemical forms of the metals in the soils. When temperature increased, the extraction of As increased accordingly, showing 92-100% removal with 100 mM of NaOH at 300°C. In contrast, the extraction of cationic metals by citric acid and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) decreased markedly at 200–300°C because their chelating ability was decreased via decarboxylation and dehydration at high temperatures. Furthermore, the extraction of cationic metals was significantly affected by solution pH. Our results suggest that chemical extraction of cationic metals under subcritical conditions may be affected by several factors, including character of metal, type of extracting reagent, existing forms of metal in the soil, temperature, and soil pH. 相似文献

Phytoextraction is a technique using a hyperaccumulator to remove heavy metals from soil. The efficiency of heavy metal uptake can be enhanced by the inoculation of endophytes. In this study, we isolated and identified 23 endophytes from Chromolaena odorata, a cadmium (Cd) hyperaccumulator that consisted of 19 bacteria, 2 actinomycetes and 2 fungi. All bacteria and fungi could produce at least 1 plant growth promoting factors. However, only 4 bacterial isolates; Paenibacillus sp. SB12, Bacillus sp. SB31, Bacillus sp. LB51, and Alcaligenes sp. RB54 showed the highest minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value (2.9 mM), followed by Exiguobacterium sp.RB51 (1.7 mM). Then, these 5 high-MIC bacteria and 1 low-MIC bacterium, Bacillus sp. LB15 were inoculated onto sunflower grown in soil supplemented with 250 mg/kg of Cd. After 60 days, all inoculated plants accumulated significantly higher Cd concentration than the non-inoculated counterparts, and those inoculated with strain LB51 showed the highest Cd accumulation and growth. Interestingly, strain LB15 with low MIC also enhanced Cd accumulation in plants. The results suggest that these bacteria, particularly strain LB51, could be applied to improve Cd accumulation in plants, and that bacteria with low MIC also have the potential to enhance the efficiency of phytoextraction. 相似文献

DGT-measured fluxes explain the chloride-enhanced cadmium uptake by plants at low but not at high Cd supply 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The technique of diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) has been shown to be a promising tool to assess metal uptake by plants in a wide range of soils. With the DGT technique, diffusion fluxes of trace metals through a diffusion layer towards a resin layer are measured. The DGT technique therefore mimics the metal uptake by plants if uptake is limited by diffusion of the free ion to the plant roots, which may not be the case at high metal supply. This study addresses the capability of DGT to predict cadmium (Cd) uptake by plants at varying Cd supply. To test the performance of DGT in such conditions, we used the chloride (Cl?) enhancement effect, i.e. the increase in Cd solution concentrations—due to chloride complexation of Cd—and Cd uptake with increasing Cl? concentrations, as previously characterized in pot, field and solution culture experiments. The uptake of Cd by spinach was assessed in soil amended with Cd (0.4–10.5 mg Cd kg?1) and NaCl (up to 120 mM) in a factorial design. Treatments with NaNO3 were included as a reference to correct for ionic strengths effects. The effect of Cl? on the shoot Cd concentrations was significant at background Cd but diminished with increasing soil Cd. Increasing Cl? concentrations increased the root area based Cd uptake fluxes by more than a factor of 5 at low soil Cd, but had no significant effect at high soil Cd. Short-term uptake of Cd in spinach from nutrient solutions confirmed these trends. In contrast, increasing Cl? concentrations increased the DGT measured fluxes by a factor of 5 at all Cd levels. As a result, DGT fluxes were able to explain soil Cl? effects on plant Cd concentrations at low but not at high Cd supply. This example illustrates under which conditions DGT mimics trace metal bioavailability. If biouptake is controlled by diffusive limitations, DGT should be a successful tool for predicting ion uptake across different conditions. 相似文献

The presented study assessed the heavy metal contamination risk in a former sludge deposit field of the River Ruhr in Essen, Germany. Therefore, the temporal and spatial distribution in soils and plants, chemical fractionation, mobilization potential, and transfer characteristics have been investigated. Soil samples, roots and shoots of rushes (Juncus sp.), and stem wood disks of willows (Salix sp.) were analyzed for Zn, Cu, Pb, Ni, Cr, and Cd. Plant available and mobile heavy metal portions have been determined using a sequential extraction procedure. The results show that the soils and the rushes are highly contaminated, although there is a considerable decrease compared to initial concentrations some 20 years ago. The willows show only small heavy metal enrichment. pH induced mobilization potential in soil is high for Cd, Zn and Ni. Additionally, these elements contain high portions of plant-available fractions. High transfer rates from soil to roots and very high rates from roots to shoots of rushes have been determined for Cd and Zn, indicating an accumulation of these elements in shoots of rushes. The rushes reflect the temporal and spatial heavy metal distribution in soil and might thus be used as a bioindicator or for phytoremediation. 相似文献

A pot experiment was conducted to study the performance of EDTA and citric acid (CA) addition in improving phytoextraction of Cd, Cu, Pb, and Cr from artificially contaminated soil by T. angustifolia. T. angustifolia showed the remarkable resistance to heavy metal toxicity with no visual toxic symptom including chlorosis and necrosis when exposed to metal stress. EDTA-addition significantly reduced plant height and biomass, compared with the control, and stunted plant growth, while 2.5 and 5 mM CA addition induced significant increases in root dry weight. EDTA, and 5 and 10 mM CA significantly increased shoot Cd, Pb, and Cr concentrations compared with the control, with EDTA being more effective. At final harvest, the highest shoot Cd, Cr, and Pb concentrations were recorded in the treatment of 5 mM EDTA addition, while maximal root Pb concentration was found at the 2.5 mM CA treatment. However, shoot Cd accumulation in the 10 mM CA treatment was 36.9% higher than that in 2.5 mM EDTA, and similar with that in 10 mM EDTA. Shoot Pb accumulation was lower in 10 mM CA than that in EDTA treatments. Further, root Cd, Cu, and Pb accumulation of CA treatments and shoot Cr accumulation in 5 or 10 mM CA treatments were markedly higher than that of control and EDTA treatments. The results also showed that EDTA dramatically increased the dissolution of Cu, Cr, Pb, and Cd in soil, while CA addition had less effect on water-soluble Cu, Cr, and Cd, and no effect on Pb levels. It is suggested that CA can be a good chelator candidate for T. angustifolia used for environmentally safe phytoextraction of Cd and Cr in soils. 相似文献

The effect of microorganisms on the fate of Cd introduced into the soil as cadmium oxide (CdO) was investigated. Cadmium oxide (875 µg Cd per gram of soil) was added to -irradiated (sterile) and non-sterile soils. The soils were incubated for 90 days at 18 °C under aerobic conditions with moisture kept at 60% of water-holding capacity. Half of the samples in each treatment were supplemented with starch (0.5%, w/w) in order to stimulate microbial growth in the non-sterile soil. After various time intervals (7- or 10-day), soil samples from each treatment were extracted with deionized distilled water (ratio 1:40) or 0.25 M CaCl2 (ratio 1:5). The results indicated that during the incubation period the amount of Cd extracted from the non-sterile soil with either solvent was markedly lower than that extracted from the -irradiated sterile control. The addition of starch to the non-sterile soil reduced the concentration of Cd in the 0.25 M CaCl2 extracts without affecting the Cd-content in the water extracts. Short-term experiments in which Cd was added to the soil as a solution of Cd(NO3)2 indicated that irradiation did not affect the sorption of Cd to the soil. The addition of bacterial mass (1 mg of dry weight g–1 soil) decreased the amount of Cd extracted with water as well as that extracted with 0.25 M CaCl2. Under sterile conditions the solubility of CdO in soil extracts was higher than in the other extractants. The addition of glucose (0.5%, w/w) or a glucose/starch mixture (0.5%, w/w of each) to the sterile soil increased the amount of extractable Cd after a short incubation (18 h at 18 °C). The obtained results suggest that primarily physicochemical reactions are involved in dissolving CdO in the soil but that microbial activity may be responsible for the immobilization of the released metal. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to study, in a rhizobox experiment, the phytoextraction of metals by the hyperaccumulator plant Thlaspi caerulescens in relation to the heterogeneity of metal pollution. Six treatments were designed with soils containing various levels of metals. Homogeneous soils and inclusions of soils in other soil matrices were prepared in order to vary metal concentration and localization. Growth parameters of the plant (rosette diameter and shoot biomass) and localization of roots and shoot uptake of Zn, Cd, Ca, and Mg were determined after 10 weeks of growth. The plants grown on the polluted industrial soils provided a larger biomass and had lower mortality rates than those grown on the agricultural soil. Moreover, these plants accumulated more Zn and Cd (up to 17,516 and 375 mg kg(-1) DM, respectively) than plants grown on the agricultural soil (up to 7300 mg Zn kg(-1) and 83 mg Cd kg(-1) DM). The roots preferentially explored metal-contaminated areas. The exploration of polluted soil inclusions by the roots was associated with a higher extraction of metals. Zinc and Cd in the shoots of Thlaspi caerulescens were negatively correlated with Ca and Mg concentrations; however, the soil supply for these two elements was identical. This suggests that there is competition for the uptake of these elements and that Zn is preferentially accumulated. 相似文献

Plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) may help to reduce the toxicity of heavy metals on plants growing in polluted soils. In this work, Sulla coronaria inoculated with four Cd resistant bacteria (two Pseudomonas spp. and two Rhizobium sullae) were cultivated in hydroponic conditions treated by Cd; long time treatment 50 µM CdCl2 for 30 days and short time treatment; 100 µM CdCl2 for 7 days. Results showed that inoculation with Cd resistant PGPB enhanced plant biomass, thus shoot and root dry weights of control plants were enhanced by 148 and 35% respectively after 7 days. Co-inoculation of plants treated with 50 and 100 µM Cd increased plant biomasses as compared to Cd-treated and uninoculated plants. Cadmium treatment induced lipid peroxidation in plant tissues measured through MDA content in short 7 days 100 µM treatment. Antioxidant enzyme studies showed that inoculation of control plants enhanced APX, SOD and CAT activities after 30 days in shoots and SOD, APX, SOD, GPOX in roots. Application of 50 µM CdCl2 stimulated all enzymes in shoots and decreased SOD and CAT activities in roots. Moreover, 100 µM of CdCl2 increased SOD, APX, CAT and GPOX activities in shoots and increased significantly CAT activity in roots. Metal accumulation depended on Cd concentration, plant organ and time of treatment. Furthermore, the inoculation enhanced Cd uptake in roots by 20% in all treatments. The cultivation of this symbiosis in Cd contaminated soil or in heavy metal hydroponically treated medium, showed that inoculation improved plant biomass and increased Cd uptake especially in roots. Therefore, the present study established that co-inoculation of S. coronaria by a specific consortium of heavy metal resistant PGPB formed a symbiotic system useful for soil phytostabilization. 相似文献

A greenhouse study was conducted to determine the effect of cadmium (Cd)-resistant Pseudomonas putida strain 710A and Commamonas aquatica strain 710B, used either alone or as a binary mixture on the toxicity of cadmium to mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) wilczek] plants. The bacterial strains 710A and 710B, isolated from the Semra mines in Ranchi, India, were resistant to 0.5 mM and 1 mM, CdCl2 respectively. Moreover, both strains grew well at 10 °C and 30 °C. Of the two bacterial strains, strain 710B showed 129.6 and 83.5 times higher P solubilizing activity than strain 710A, when grown in liquid broth supplemented with cadmium at 10 °C and 30 °C, respectively. Furthermore, 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sequencing identified 710A as a Pseudomonas putida strain and 710B as a Commamonas aquatica strain. The strain 710A significantly (p?<?0.05) stimulated the growth of roots (35.2 %) and shoots (30 %) of mungbean plants grown in soil treated with 110 μM CdCl2. However, the increase in the case of 710B was found to be 15.4 % and 5.17 %, respectively. The loss of chlorophyll content was replenished by up to 80 %, 66 %, and 77.3 % by inoculation of 710A, 710B and binary mixture, respectively. Moreover the strains were able to reduce Cd accumulation in roots and shoots. Most significantly, residual Cd concentration in soil was reduced in the presence of bioinoculants. However, in terms of efficiency, the strains were found to be in the following order: 710A?>?710A +710B?>?710B. The results suggest that P. putida 710A strain is a potentially effective candidate metal to be used for sequestering and as a growth-promoting bioinoculant in Cd polluted soil. 相似文献

Predictability of the Zn and Cd phytoextraction efficiency of a Salix smithiana clone by DGT and conventional bioavailability assays 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Aims
Phytomanagement of metal-polluted soils requires information on plant responses to metal availability in soil, but the predictability of metal accumulation in plant shoots and/or roots may be limited by metal toxicity and inherent shortfalls of the bioavailability assays.Methods
We measured the uptake of Cd and Zn in a Salix smithiana clone grown in a pot experiment on soils with different characteristics and metal availabilities, determined by conventional soil single extractions (0.05 M Na2-EDTA and 1 M NH4NO3), soil solution obtained by centrifugation, and diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT). The Cd and Zn phytoavailability after a 2-year phytoextraction by willow was assessed by metal accumulation in the straw of the following barley culture.Results
The phytoextraction efficiency was largest on a moderately polluted acid soil. Biomass and shoot Zn concentrations of S. smithiana were better predicted by DGT-measured Zn concentrations in soil solution (C DGT) than by Zn concentrations in the soil solution and extractable soil fractions. The weaker correlation for Cd in shoots may be related to relative Cd enrichment in the plant tissues. The metal accumulation in barley straw was unaffected or increased after a 2-year phytoextraction.Conclusions
The shoot Zn and Cd removal of the tested Salix clone can be predicted by C DGT concentrations and is highest on either calcareous or moderately polluted acid soils. Single extraction with NH4NO3 and the C DGT value of Cd were not able to predict shoot Cd removal on the tested soils. Only shoot removal of Zn was predicted fairly well by the C DGT value. 相似文献14.

Phytoremediation of heavy metal-contaminated sites is often limited by the low bioavailability of the contaminants. Complexing agents can help to improve this technique by enhancing heavy metal solubility. We investigated the effect of three organic chelating agents, that is, the siderophore desferrioxamine B (DFOB), nitrilotriacetate (NTA), and citrate on binding of Cu, Zn, and Cd by either Namontmorillonite, kaolinite, or goethite. The different effects of the complexing agents on metal sorption can mainly be explained by the differences in stability constants and surface charge characteristics. In the presence of clay minerals, NTA was the most efficient ligand with respect to mobilization of heavy metals. In goethite suspensions, the effect of DFOB was more pronounced. In all systems, Cu proved to be the most affected element by the presence of the ligands. In batch experiments with heavy metal-contaminated soils from field sites, NTA was the most efficient metal mobilizer. 相似文献

The study aimed to test the effects of sodium nitroprusside [SNP, a nitric oxide (NO) donor], supplied with different approaches on cadmium (Cd) toxicity in lettuce seedlings (Lactuca sativa) in a pot experiment. SNP (8.94 mg) was applied into Cd-contaminated soil directly or added into a capsule, a paper bag, starch-coated granules, or foliar application. Cd (50 mg kg? 1) reduced chlorophyll content, caused oxidative stress, increased Cd accumulation in roots and leaves, and inhibited the uptake of calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and iron (Fe). The addition of exogenous NO in Cd-contaminated soil increased chlorophyll content, improved antioxidant enzyme activities, promoted the uptake of Ca, Mg, and Fe, reduced Cd-induced oxidative damages, and inhibited Cd transferred from roots to shoots. Moreover, SNP supplied with different approaches had varied effects on Cd tolerance of lettuce seedlings. The alleviated effect of SNP applied into soil directly was the worst, and the three SNP slow release materials had better alleviation effects on Cd toxicity. Foliar SNP application had the best effects on increasing Cd tolerance in lettuce seedlings. 相似文献

This paper reports the results of desorption experiments of cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and zinc (Zn) from some contaminated calcareous soils under four electrolyte types (CaCl2, MgCl2, NaCl and Na2SO4) with different electrolyte concentrations (0.5, 4 and 10 mM). Among electrolytes, CaCl2 significantly released more metals from soils. There was a negative relationship between total Cu and Zn content and percentage of Cu and Zn released (average of electrolyte concentrations) using CaCl2 solution, indicating a higher Cu and Zn released when their total content was low. Generally, Cd, Cu, and Zn speciation was affected by both type of electrolytes and their concentrations, whereas Ni speciation stayed mostly stable and was almost unaffected by applied solutions. It can be suggested that beside competition with cations, chloro-complexation is important parameter in Cd release, while CuOH+, and to some extent ZnOH+ are important species affecting release of Cu and Zn. The distribution coefficient (Kd) values for each metals greatly varied with the types of electrolytes and electrolyte concentration. On the basis of average percentage of metal released under different electrolytes and concentrations the following sequences was found: Cd > Cu > Ni > Zn. The results are important in understanding the mobility of metals under different solutions and indicating that, Cd and Zn soils may pose a higher and lower mobility and ecological risk in contaminated calcareous soils, respectively. 相似文献

A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of pollination on cadmium (Cd) phytoextraction from soil by mature maize plants. The results showed that the unpollinated maize plants accumulated 50% more Cd than that of the pollinated plants, even though the dry weight of the former plants was 15% less than that of the latter plants. The Cd accumulation in root and leaf of the unpollinated maize plant was 0.47 and 0.89 times higher than that of the pollinated plant, respectively. The Cd concentration in the cob was significantly decreased because of pollination. Preventing pollination is a promising approach for enhancing the effectiveness of phytoextraction in Cd-contaminated soils by maize. This study suggested that in low Cd-contaminated soil pollination should be encouraged because accumulation of Cd in maize grains is very little and maize seeds can bring farmers economic benefits, while in high Cd-contaminated soil, inhibition of pollination can be applied to enhance phytoextraction of Cd from soil by maize plant. 相似文献

The cadmium (Cd) uptake characteristics by Sorghum bicolor cv. Nengsi 2# and Cowley from the acidic sandy loam soil (pH = 6.1) during the entire growth period (100 days) were investigated in pot outdoors in a tropical district of southern China, Hainan Island. The Cd-spiked levels in soil were set as 3 and 15 mg/kg. Correspondingly, the available Cd levels in soil extracted by Mehlich III solution were 2.71 and 9.41 mg/kg, respectively. Basically, two varieties in a full growth period (100 days) did not show a significant difference in their growth and Cd uptake. Under high Cd stress, the plant growth was inhibited and its biomass weight and height decreased by 38.7–51.5% and 27.6–28.5%, respectively. However, S. bicolor showed higher bioaccumulation capability of Cd from soil to plant [bioconcentration factor (BCF)>4], and higher transfer capability of Cd from roots to shoots [translocation factor (TF)>1] under high Cd stress; Cd contents in the roots, stems, and leaves of S. bicolor reached 43.79–46.07, 63.28–70.60, and 63.10–66.06 mg/kg, respectively. S. bicolor exhibited the potential phytoextraction capability for low or moderate Cd-contamination in acidic sandy loam soil. 相似文献

To construct a chromosome-specific DNA library of chromosome 6VS from Haynaldia villosa, a wheat alien chromosome addition line T240 with a 6VS chromosome arm and its parental common wheat cv. CA921 were used to optimize protocols for preparing chromosome suspension amenable to flow sorting of the 6VS chromosome. Our results showed that root tips incubated sequentially in Hogland’s solution containing 1.25 mM hydroxyurea (DNA synthesis inhibitor) for 18 h, a hydroxyurea-free period for 2 h, and 1 μM trifluralin for 4 h (metaphase blocking reagent) increased the metaphase index (MI) by up to 62 % . Many metaphase chromosomes were released to form a chromosome suspension when root tips fixed in 2 % paraformaldehyde were treated in a homogenizer at 9,500 rpm for 10–15 s. Most of the released chromosomes had intact morphology. The background solution of chromosome suspension was clear and relatively few of cell debris and chromosome clumps. Univariate flow karyotypes were established with chromosome suspension flow through FACS Vantage 2000 SE flow cytometer. The flow karyotype of CA921 consisted of four chromosome peaks, whereas that for T240 had a fifth peak. This fifth peak in T240 contained the telosome, which was further confirmed to be 6VS through fluorescence in situ hybridization. 相似文献

An investigation was carried out to evaluate the effect of heavy metal toxicity on growth, herb, oil yield and quality and metal accumulation in rose scented geranium (Pelargonium graveolens) grown in heavy metal enriched soils. Four heavy metals (Cd, Ni, Cr, and Pb) each at two levels (10 and 20 mg kg–1 soil) were tested on geranium. Results indicated that Cr concentration in soil at 20 mg kg–1 reduced leaves, stem and root yield by 70, 83, and 45%, respectively, over control. Root growth was significantly affected in Cr stressed soil. Nickel, Cr, and Cd concentration and accumulation in plant increased with higher application of these metals. Chromium, nickel and cadmium uptake was observed to be higher in leaves than in stem and roots. Essential oil constituents were generally not significantly affected by heavy metals except Pb at 10 and 20 ppm, which significantly increased the content of citronellol and Ni at 20 ppm increased the content of geraniol. Looking in to the higher accumulation of toxic metals by geranium and the minimal impact of heavy metals on quality of essential oil, geranium can be commercially cultivated in heavy metal polluted soil for production of high value essential oil. 相似文献
