Effects of soil typeson phyllosphere microbial community structure and function of hyperaccumulator Sedum alfredii

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版
Phyllosphere microorganisms play important roles in promoting plant growth and resisting biotic and abiotic stresses. Nevertheless, there is a lack of knowledge on the phyllosphere microbial community structure and function of environment-specific plants,

Metal resistant gut microbiota facilitates snails feeding on metal hyperaccumulator plant Sedum alfredii in the phytoremediation field

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
The interactions between hyperaccumulators and their associated herbivores have been mostly investigated in their natural habitats and largely ignored in the phytoremediation practice.

Media‐Dependent Growth, Stress Responses, and Metal Accumulation Patterns in Azolla imbricata (Roxb.) Nakai Exposed to As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn: Individual and Combination Effects (Synergistic, Antagonistic, and Additive)

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 11, Page 1223-1248, November 2026.
ABSTRACT In this study, we examined metal accumulation and biochemical responses of Azolla imbricata (Roxb.) Nakai exposed to water medium (WM) and nutrient medium (NM) under single and combined (co‐exposure) treatments with five metals (As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) at 10% environmentally relevant concentrations.

Scientists’ warning on the global destruction of rock outcrop ecosystems

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Rock outcrops are geological formations that harbor a highly specialized biota adapted to harsh environmental conditions that differ from their surrounding landscapes. They are globally distributed, especially in old, highly weathered landscapes, and can function as habitat islands containing high levels of endemism and distinct evolutionary ...

Heavy Metal Contamination: Impacts From Plants to the Food Chain and Eco‐Friendly Amelioration Strategies

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 232-246, September 2026.
Heavy metal pollution reduces soil health and threatens food safety by entering plants; however, the use of nanoparticles, biofertilizers, and organic fertilizers such as biochar offers a promising strategy for improvement and sustainable agriculture. ABSTRACT Heavy metal (HM) pollution, resulting from human activities such as mining and the excessive ...

Polyphenolic and Biogenic Volatile Organic Compound Profiles of Endemic Metallophytes From the Thallium‐Rich Allchar Mining Area

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
Six plant taxa endemic to the thallium‐rich Allchar Mining Area (North Macedonia) were profiled by HPLC/DAD/MSn and headspace GC–MS. Seventy‐eight polyphenols and 123 biogenic volatile organic compounds were identified, and multivariate analysis showed congruent, species‐specific polyphenolic and volatile signatures with no significant association with

On the Ecology of Selenium Accumulation in Plants

Plants, 2019
Plants accumulate and tolerate Se to varying degrees, up to 15,000 mg Se/kg dry weight for Se hyperaccumulators. Plant Se accumulation may exert positive or negative effects on other species in the community.
