Metabolic synergies in the biotransformation of organic and metallic toxic compounds by a saprotrophic soil fungus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The saprotrophic fungus Penicillium griseofulvum was chosen as model organism to study responses to a mixture of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) isomers (α-HCH, β-HCH, γ-HCH, δ-HCH) and of potentially toxic metals (vanadium, lead) in solid and liquid media ...

EFFECTS OF TOXIC ELEMENTS ON LEAF MORPHOLOGY OF HALOPHILA STIPULACEA GROWINMINE DUMP SEDIMENTS IN SOUTHEAST JORDAN

open access: yesEQA, 2017
Plants, in particular seagrasses, that grow in contaminated areas can uptake and accumulate Potential Toxic Elements (PTEs) in their tissues. This accumulation in turn can produce several effects on plant morphology and health status. This study, carried

Effect of Plastics (Geotextiles) on Heavy Metal Accumulation by Industrial Hemp Plants Cultivated in Polluted Mediterranean Soils

open access: yesInternational Journal of Plant Biology
An attempt was made to simulate the conditions prevailing in an agricultural crop to investigate whether and how geotextile microplastics alter the movement and accumulation of heavy metals in plants. For this purpose, a pot experiment, lasting 149 days,
