Biological Control, 1995
Abstract An alginate formulation of Alternaria eichhorniae (isolate Ae5) was evaluated in greenhouse trials as a bioherbicide to control waterhyacinth ( Eichhornia crassipes ). Pellet and powder formulations, the latter used in combination with hydrophilic substances, were tested.

Bioconcentration and Phytotoxicity of Cd in Eichhornia crassipes
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2006Plants of Eichhornia crassipes grown at various levels of cadmium ranging from 0.1 to 100 microg ml(-1) accumulated Cd in a concentration and duration dependent manner. At all levels, Cd accumulation by various plant tissues followed the order roots shoot leaves.

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1986
Both aquatic and terrestrial habitats frequently are subject to contamination by toxic heavy metals, yet very little is known about the influence of heavy metals absorbed by plant tissues upon the phytophagous insect fauna feeding upon these plants. The objectives of this study were to determine the influence of plant-absorbed metals upon the feeding ...

A thermophilic glucoamylase fromCephalosporium eichhorniae
Current Microbiology, 1978A novel exocellular glucoamylase produced by a thermophilic fungus,Cephalosporium eichhorniae, was purified by a combination of membrane filtration and Sephadex chromatography. The enzyme was a glycoprotein, 28% carbohydrate by weight. It was composed of a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight of 26,850.

Aquatic macrophytes and Eichhornia crassipes
1982Munro (1966) defined the shoreline habitats of Lake McIlwaine in terms of the presence or absence of aquatic macrophytes, and the major species of macrophyte where the plants were present. Relatively few areas of the lake shore were free of macrophytes (Fig.

Effects on Eichhornia crassipes under Zn stress
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2018Eichhornia crassipes is a macrophyte widely used in phytoremediation, demonstrating a high ability to remove metals from water. The aim of this work was to evaluate its enzymatic detoxification strategies and metal accumulation when it is exposed to different Zn concentrations (0, 2, 4, 6, and 9 ppm) for periods of 24, 48, and 72 h. Zn concentration in

Biological Control, 2005
Abstract The fungus Alternaria eichhorniae isolate #5 (Ae5) is being developed as a mycoherbicide agent for controlling waterhyacinth ( Eichhornia crassipes ) in Egypt. Inoculum concentrations above 10% (mycelial wet weight) were all equally effective in controlling waterhyacinth at 100% level (weed kill).

Resource recovery of Eichhornia crassipes as oil superabsorbent
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2017The elastic cellulose-based aerogels (CBAs) with highly porous (99.56%) and low-density (0.0065gcm-1) were prepared using Eichhornia crassipes as cellulose source and polyvinyl alcohol directly as cross-linker via a facile and environment-friendly process.

Cyanide phytoremediation by water hyacinths (Eichhornia crassipes)
Chemosphere, 2007Although cyanide is highly toxic, it is economically attractive for extracting gold from ore bodies containing only a few grams per 1000 kg. Most of the cyanide used in industrial mining is handled without observable devastating consequences, but in informal, small-scale mining, the use is poorly regulated and the waste treatment is insufficient ...
