This study investigated how species richness and biotope space affect phytoextracted nickel mass. Growing monocultures and bicultures of two endemic species across a nickel stress gradient revealed that bicultures generally enhanced soil nickel bioavailability, aboveground biomass, and nickel phytoextraction compared to monocultures.

Phytoextraction of cadmium from soils treated with sewage sludge [PDF]
The efficacy of phytoextraction strategies were tested by pot and field trials on soil contaminated with heavy metals, including Cd, derived from long-term disposal of sewage sludge.

Abstract Introduction Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), a class of petroleum‐derived compounds known for causing cellular damage and for their recalcitrant behavior, severely limit effective biodegradation. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) from oil‐contaminated environments can mitigate PAH‐related stress on host plants, highlighting the ...

Bioaccumulation and chemical forms of cadmium, copper and lead in aquatic plants
The cadmium(Cd), copper(Cu) and lead(Pb) accumulation, as well as their relative content of different chemical forms in Sagittaria sagittifolia L. and Potamogeton crispus L. were determined.

ABSTRACT The soil borne pathogen Rhizoctonia solani AG8 causes Rhizoctonia bare patch disease, a major constraint on global wheat production, particularly in no‐ or minimal ‐till systems. Current control strategies such as crop rotation, chemical fungicides, and tillage provide only partial protection, while fungicides can accelerate resistance ...

Effect of indigenous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on growth and metal uptake of Nauclea orientalis L. plants, has been investigated. Plants were grown in greenhouse conditions on serpentine soil media without and with the AMF (Glomus sp ...

Abstract Soil salinization is an escalating threat to dryland agroecosystems, intensified by unsustainable agricultural practices, limited freshwater availability, and increasingly high evaporative demand. Phytodesalination offers a potential water‐saving alternative to salt leaching, yet its efficiency is contingent on appropriate plant selection ...

Phytoremediation of Wastewater From Oil Well Drilling: Potential of Different Plant Species
Purple fountain grass (Cenchrus setaceus “Rubrum”) is a promising plant for using in constructed wetlands treating complex oil drilling effluents. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the removal of contaminants present in wastewater from oil well drilling in the presence of three plant species: water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), cattail (Typha ...
