Root nodules of red alder (Alnus rubra) and Sitka alder (Alnus viridis ssp. sinuata) are inhabited by taxonomically diverse cultivable microbial endophytes

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 13, Issue 3, June 2024.
Plants that host nitrogen‐fixing symbionts in their root nodules play a significant role in both ecology and economy. However, the secondary members of these root nodule microbiomes have not been thoroughly studied. Our field survey conducted on Mount St.

Phytostabilization of cadmium contaminated soils by Lupinus uncinatus Schldl.

Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2009
Phytoremediation offers the benefits of being in situ, low cost and environmentally sustainable. Lupinus species is starting to generate interest for phytoremediation of soils showing intermediate metal pollution. The aim of this study was to explore the accumulating behavior and tolerance of Lupinus uncinatus Schldl.

Stabilization of Fly Ash Deposits through Selected Cereal Crops

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
Fly ash, a waste product from burning coal in power plants, occupies important spaces and is a major harm for environment: water, air, soil and associated ecosystems. New deposits do not have available nutrients for plant growth.

Enhanced phytostabilization of cadmium by a halophyte—Acanthus ilicifoliusL.

International Journal of Phytoremediation, 2016
Heavy metal pollution in mangrove wetlands has become a growing matter of concern as it serves as sink and source for toxic heavy metals including cadmium (Cd). The present study evaluates the phytostabilization potential of a halophyte, Acanthus ilicifolius L., toward Cd under hydroponic culture conditions.

Phytoremediation Characterization of Heavy Metals by Some Native Plants at Anthropogenic Polluted Sites in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

Resources
Many anthropogenic activities have lately resulted in soil adulteration by heavy metals (HMs). The assessment of native plant species that grow in the polluted environments is of great importance for using these plants in phytoremediation techniques ...

Field experiment on the uptake of lead, strontium, cobalt, and nickel in the wood and bark of spruce (Picea abies L.) and Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii Mirb.) [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society
Human activities have significantly altered the availability and circulation of pollutants, impacting their concentrations in the environment. This pollution notably affects trees.

In Situ Phytoremediation of Mine Tailings with High Concentrations of Cadmium and Lead Using Dodonaea viscosa (Sapindaceae)

Plants
The waste generated during metal mining activities contains mixtures of heavy metals (HM) that are not biodegradable and can accumulate in the surrounding biota, increasing risk to human and environmental health.

Biochar co-compost increases the productivity of Brassica napus by improving antioxidant activities and soil health and reducing lead uptake

Frontiers in Plant Science
Lead (Pb) is a serious toxic metal without any beneficial role in the biological system. Biochar (BC) has emerged as an excellent soil amendment to mitigate Pb toxicity. The impact of BC co-compost (BCC) in mitigating the toxic impacts of Pb has not been
