Strategies for Mitigating Seasonal Heavy Metal Release in River Sediments Using Natural Mineral‐Based Materials

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents an ecological and geochemical assessment of trace element contamination in the Huyva River (Ukraine), a right tributary of the Teteriv River that supplies drinking water to Zhytomyr and nearby settlements. The research involved monitoring key physicochemical parameters, including pH, mineralization, hardness, and major ion ...

Influence of Fertilization on the Phytoremediation of Lead‐Contaminated Soils Using Tropical Grasses

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT Lead is an element intensively used by human activities, representing serious risks to food security due to soil contamination, making it essential to implement control strategies to mitigate its harmful effects. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of soil fertilization on the growth and lead accumulation of grasses used ...

Jasmonates enhance plants tolerance grown in Cd‐contaminated environments: A comprehensive overview

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 2, Page 390-405, March 2026.
Jasmonates (JAs) enhance plant tolerance to cadmium (Cd) stress by activating antioxidant defences but may reduce Cd uptake, limiting their effectiveness for phytoremediation. This review compiles studies that evaluated the effects of JA application on plants grown in Cd‐contaminated environments. Abstract Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal and one of

Synchrotron Micro‐X‐Ray Fluorescence Elemental Imaging Reveals Zinc Distribution in the Hyperaccumulator Sedum plumbizincicola (Crassulaceae)

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Sedum plumbizincicola is a zinc‐cadmium hyperaccumulator native to China with high potential for use in phytoremediation. Synchrotron micro‐X‐ray fluorescence elemental imaging shows that zinc is localized in the leaf tips, petioles, and nodes with the highest Zn concentrations observed in the epidermis and vascular system of both leaves and stems ...

Effect of EDTA treatment method on leaching of Pb and Cr by Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. Ex Steudel (common reed)

Caspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2015
One of the major problems about the chelant-enhanced phytoextraction is the potential metal leaching associated with chelant application. A glasshouse pot experiment was conducted to investigate phytoextraction efficiency of common reed (Phragmites ...

Biomass yield and metal phytoextraction efficiency of Salix and Populus clones harvested at different rotation lengths in the field experiment

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture
Background Phytoextraction belongs to environmentally well-accepted remediation technologies to remove metals from contaminated soils. Due to long-time requirement, sufficient data for proper phytoextraction evaluation are missing.

Analysis of Mercury-Rich plants and mine tailings using the Hydride-Generation AAS method

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2009
A hydride-generation atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) method was developed for the analysis of total Hg in liquid matrices of mercury-rich plants and mine tailings samples. The detection limit for this method was as low as 11.4 ng/mL.

Effects of nitrate to ammonium ratio and nitrogen level on growth of an invasive plant Alternanthera philoxeroides in cadmium polluted water

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our findings suggest that nitrogen level and the ratio of nitrate to ammonium have an interaction effect on the overall growth of Alternanthera philoxeroides in Cd polluted water. We argue that when considering the growth of this invasive species in Cd polluted water, it is equally important to consider both the effects of nitrate to ammonium ratio and

The results of an NPK-fertilisation trial of long-term crop rotation on carbonate-rich soil in Estonia

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2019
Soil is an element of crop cultivation that demands consistent fertilisation to compensate for the nutrients that are removed by the harvest. Changes in soil because of prolonged fertilisation can only be estimated by long-term field trials.

Evidence for Phytoremediation and Phytoexcretion of NTO from Industrial Wastewater by Vetiver Grass

Molecules, 2020
The use of insensitive munitions such as 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (NTO) is rapidly increasing and is expected to replace conventional munitions in the near future.
