Heavy metal-polluted water has become a problem for sustainable environment, agriculture, and human health. Phyto-accumulation is an eco-friendly technique for decontamination of metal-polluted water and soil. The efficiency of phyto-accumulation and rhizo-filtration can be enhanced by the application of certain nutrients to accumulator plants. In this study, we focused on the role of iron (Fe) in...
Series of pot experiments were performed to determine the effects of cadmium in soil on chlorophyll content, CAT, POD and SOD activities in Brassica juncea. The results indicated that tolerance of Brassica juncea for Cd is stronger. It is able to burgeon and grow all right in the soil added Cd from mg·kg−1 to200mg·kg−1. The biomass of Brassica juncea takes on principle of parabola changes with Cd...
Phytoremediation is a promising tool in removing pollutants from the environment or in rendering them harmless. Some previous reports showed that Fe deficiency in dicots induced the stimulated accumulation of a number of micronutrient metals other than Fe. The objective of this research was to determine the effect of Fe deficiency on the uptake of cadmium (Cd) by tomato (Lycopersicon.EsculentumMill....
Abstract. Early transcriptional responses of a cell wall-deficient mutant of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii to heavy-metal stress have been investigated using the method of mRNA differential display. We have identified, sequenced, and quantified the induction of a number of transcripts that are up-regulated by a brief (2-h) exposure to 25m cadmium chloride, including one transcript which...
