High cadmium (Cd) concentrations pose a threat to aquatic life globally. This study examined the efficiency of adding purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) leaf powder (PLP) to Oreochromis niloticus diets on Cd's negative effects.

The prerequisite for breeding a plant to be used in phytoremediation is its high tolerance to grow normally in soil contaminated by certain heavy metals. As mechanisms of plant uptake and transport of nickel (Ni) are not fully understood, it is of significance to utilize exogenous genes for improving plant Ni tolerance. In this study, from encoding an exporter of Ni and cobalt was overexpressed constitutively in , and the performance of transgenic plants was assayed under Ni stress.

Ca and Mg are essential micronutrients for plant growth, and they play a crucial role in plant development and responses to adversity by influencing the activities of endogenous hormones and antioxidant enzymes. However, the specific mechanisms through which calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) regulate the kernel sugar content through endogenous hormones and antioxidant enzymes remain unclear. In this study, we analyzed the impact of Ca and Mg on the physiology of maize leaves and kernel quality by determining the activities of antioxidant enzymes and endogenous hormones, and the kernel sugar content in maize leaves when supplemented with different levels of Ca and Mg.

(), a significant ornamental plant species, is adversely affected by the severe soil heavy metal pollution resulting from rapid industrialization, particularly in terms of its growth environment. Cadmium (Cd), a representative heavy metal pollutant, poses a significant threat to plant growth and photosynthetic physiology. Despite the importance of understanding Cd stress resistance in rhododendrons, research in this area is limited.

Water pollution by metals is a global environmental problem. In riparian ecosystems, metal pollution generates adverse effects on organisms and reduces water quality. The Cuautla River is of great ecological relevance and an important water supplier.
