-Napropamide Potentially Regulates Cadmium Accumulation in Shoots through Transport Channel Modulation.

Heavy metal contamination in soils poses a significant environmental threat to human health. This study examines the effects of the chiral herbicide napropamide (NAP) on , focusing on growth metrics and cadmium (Cd) accumulation. NAP does not adversely affect plant growth compared to the control, whereas NAP significantly reduces root length and fresh weight.

Effects of zeolite imidazole frameworks on rice seedlings (Oryza sativa L.): Phytotoxicity, transformation, and bioaccumulation.

Zeolite imidazole frameworks (ZIFs), a class of the metal organic framework, have been extensively studied in environmental applications. However, their environmental fate and potential ecological impact on plants remain unknown. Here, we investigated the phytotoxicity, transformation, and bioaccumulation processes of two typical ZIFs (ZIF-8 and ZIF-67) in rice (Oryza sativa L.

Graphitic carbon nitride alleviates cadmium toxicity to soybeans through nitrogen supply.

Graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) is a promising candidate for heavy metal remediation, primarily composed of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N). It has been demonstrated that g-CN adjusts rhizosphere physicochemical conditions, especially N conditions, alleviating the absorption and accumulation of Cadmium (Cd) by soybeans. However, the mechanisms by which g-CN induces N alterations to mitigates plant uptake of Cd remain unclear.

Graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets mitigate cadmium toxicity in Glycine max L. by promoting cadmium retention in root and improving photosynthetic performance.

Cadmium (Cd) pollution poses a serious threat to plant growth and yield. Nanomaterials have shown great application potential for alleviation of Cd toxicity to plants. In this study, we applied graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (g-CN NSs) for alleviation of Cd-toxicity to soybean (Glycine max L.

A promising product: Abscisic acid-producing bacterial agents for restricting cadmium enrichment in field vegetable crops.

Soil heavy metal contamination and its enrichment in the edible parts of crops have gained global concern. In this study, a compound bacterial agent possessing the ability to produce the plant hormone, abscisic acid (ABA), was applied to contaminated farmland in Hunan province. Its application reduced the concentration of Cd in radish, cabbage, mustard, and lettuce by 15-144%.

Graphitic carbon nitride alleviates cadmium toxicity to microbial communities in soybean rhizosphere.

Cadmium (Cd) contamination has led to various harmful impacts on soil microbial ecosystem, agricultural crops, and thus human health. Nanomaterials are promising candidates for reducing the accumulation of heavy metals in plants. In this study, graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN), a two-dimensional polymeric nanomaterial, was applied for ameliorating Cd phytotoxicity to soybean (Glycine max (L.

Using brefeldin A to disrupt cell wall polysaccharide components in rice and nitric oxide to modify cell wall structure to change aluminum tolerance.

The components and structure of cell wall are closely correlated with aluminum (Al) toxicity and tolerance for plants. However, the cell wall assembly and function construction in response to Al is not known. Brefeldin A (BFA), a macrolide, is used to disrupt cell wall polysaccharide components, and nitric oxide (NO), a signal molecule, is used to modify the cell wall structure.

[Effects of IAA on physiological response to aluminum stress and DNA damage of ].

To investigate the physiological response of IAA (indoleacetic acid) to under aluminum stress and the mitigation of DNA damage, the effects of IAA (0, 10, 25, 50, 75 μmol·L denoted by I, I, I, I and I, respectively) on antioxidant enzyme activity, malondialdehyde (MDA), photosynthetic characteristics, root activity, chlorophyll content and DNA damage of two varieties of under 300 and 800 μmol·L aluminum environment (denoted by Al and Al, respectively) were examined in hydroponic culture experiments with Hebei Anguo (aluminium tolerant variety) and Zhejiang Puyang (aluminum sensitive variety). The results showed that the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT), photosynthesis ability, and root activity of both varieties were inhibited to different degrees by aluminum stress, MDA content was significantly increased, and DNA damage was aggravated. The maximum increase of SOD, CAT and POD activities in Anguo and Puyang under aluminum stress by IAA application were 15.

Nitric oxide reduces the aluminum-binding capacity in rice root tips by regulating the cell wall composition and enhancing antioxidant enzymes.

Plant cell wall, the first interface or barrier for toxic ions entering into protoplast, suffers from risk. Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in plant growth and responses to abiotic stresses, however, it is not clear whether NO is connected with the response of cell wall to aluminum (Al) tolerance in rice (Oryza sativa L.).

Response and tolerance of root border cells to aluminum toxicity in soybean seedlings.

Root border cells (RBCs) and their secreted mucilage are suggested to participate in the resistance against toxic metal cations, including aluminum (Al), in the rhizosphere. However, the mechanisms by which the individual cell populations respond to Al and their role in Al resistance still remain unclear. In this research, the response and tolerance of RBCs to Al toxicity were investigated in the root tips of two soybean cultivars [Zhechun No.
