Water-soluble chitosan and phytoremediation efficiency of two L. cultivars in cadmium-contaminated farmland soils.

Pot and field trials were conducted to investigate Cd uptake and phytoremediation efficiency of two cultivars (QY-1 and SYH) with applied water-soluble chitosan (WSC, Pot: 0, 2% and 4%; Field: 0 and 10 g·m) grown in Cd-contaminated soils. The results from the pot and field trials generally showed that WSC treatments significantly increased Cd concentrations in shoot and root tissues by 33.77-159.

[Spatial Distribution and Risk Assessment of Heavy Metal Pollution in Farmland Soils Surrounding a Typical Industrial Area of Henan Province].

In order to fully explore the spatial distribution of soil heavy metal contaminants in farmland soil surrounding a typical industrial area in Dakuai town, Xinxiang city, Henan Province, the concentrations of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn in the surface soil and within the soil profile were determined and assessed. The principal components were also analyzed for source apportionment to provide a theoretical basis for the control and prevention of heavy metal pollution. According to the results, the soils in the study area are severely contaminated by Cd and Cu and moderated contaminated by As due to the battery manufacture and Cu (e.

[Effect of Nutrient Regulation and Control on Cd Accumulation Efficiency of Under Field Conditions].

A field experiment with an orthogonally designed experiment L9(3) was designed to investigate the effect of different N, P, and K levels on plant growth and Cd uptake by . The results showed that the biomass of significantly increased with the N application rate. The highest dry weight in the shoot occurred in the treatments with a high level of N (337.

[Tolerance Mechanism and Cadmium Enrichment Abilities in Two L. Cultivars].

A hydroponic experiment was conducted to explore the differences in growth status and Cd accumulation characteristics of two L. cultivars (QY-1 and SYH) under different concentrations of cadmium (Cd) stress (0, 2, and 5 mg·L). The Cd subcellular compartmentalization and antioxidant enzyme activities were determined to elucidate the intrinsic mechanism of the differences in the Cd accumulation capacity between the two cultivars of L.
