“…Plants may reveal ability to accumulate only selected metals or absorb them at their synergic impact on the environment (Eapen and D'Souza 2005;McGrath et al 2002). According to Peško and Král'ová' (2014) and Panwar et al (2002) the ability to accumulate nickel may be diversified even within one species. The above-quoted authors stated a considerable diversification between the values of nickel BAF for two cultivars of Brassica napus cultivated under hydroponic conditions.…”

“…Plants developed efficient physiological and biochemical mechanisms of the uptake, translocation and accumulation of microelements, even at their low concentrations. The same mechanisms are also used to absorb toxic substances with chemical properties similar to microelements (Panwar et al 2002;Subhashini and Swamy 2013;Meers et al 2005). Plant species and varieties are characterized by a greatly diversified ability for heavy metals accumulation (Ogunkunle et al 2014;Yang et al 1996).…”

The investigations aimed at the evaluation of nickel bioaccumulation ability of plants from various families (Poaceae-maize, Fabaceae-field bean and Asteraceae-lettuce). The research was conducted under hydroponic conditions. The experimental design comprised ten objects differing with nickel concentrations in the solution (ranging from 0.0 to 10.0 mg Ni dm -3 of the nutrient solution). The parameters, assumed as the basis on which nickel bioretention by selected plant species was determined were: the yield, nickel content in various plant parts, uptake and utilization of this element by the plant, tolerance index (TI) and translocation factor (TF), the metal concentrations in the aboveground parts index (CI) and bioacummulation factor (BAF). On the basis of the obtained results it was found that, due to low tolerance of nickel, maize could be used as the indicator plant for the environment quality assessment.

“…Phytoextraction is a developing technology that utilizes living green plants to extract heavy metal pollutants and it has attracted much attention because it is a relatively cheap and environmentally friendly approach (Salt et al 1995;McGrath 1998;Garbisu and Alkorta 2001;Panwar et al 2002). The concept of using hyperaccumulator to take up and remove heavy metals from contaminated soils was first reported by Chaney (1983).…”

Enhancement of multiple heavy metal uptake from municipal solid waste (MSW) compost by Lolium perenne L. in a field experiment was investigated with application of EDTA. EDTA was added in solution at six rates (0-30 mmol kg( - 1)) after 50 days of plant growth. Two weeks later, plants were harvested for the first crop and then all the turfgrasses were mowed. After another 30 days of growth, EDTA was added again at above six rates to the corresponding sites and the second crop was harvested 2 weeks later. The results showed that EDTA significantly increased heavy metal accumulation in both crops of L. perenne. For the first crop, the concentrations of Mn, Ni, Cd, and Pb in the shoots increased remarkably with increasing EDTA supply, peaked at 25 mmol kg( - 1) EDTA, and shoots of 0-5 cm height (shoots from medium surface to 5 cm height) had higher metal concentrations than 5-10 cm and >10 cm shoots. The highest concentration of Mn, Ni, Cd, and Pb was 2.3-, 2.3-, 2.6-, and 3.2-fold, respectively, in 0-5 cm shoots higher than control. For the second crop, the concentrations of Mn, Cu, and Pb in shoots were, in general, less than those in the first crop. However, the second crop was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than the first crop in dry biomass, so the total amount of metals removed by the second crop was more than the first crop. In addition, EDTA significantly increased the translocation ratios of most heavy metals from roots to shoots. For the first crop, 38% of the total Zn, 51% of Cd, 49% of Pb, 60% Mn, 55% Ni, and 45% Cu taken up by the plant was translocated in the shoots of 0-5 cm height. Turfgrass would have potential for use in remediation of heavy metals in MSW compost or contaminated soils.

“…The use of S. minima aiming the Ni removal from industrial effluents should be better studied, and preferably in consortium with other macrophytes or microorganisms that are able to remove this metal before passing through the S. minima cultivation. An alternative would be the consortium with Brassica juncea or Brassica carinata (Panwar et al, 2002); where the authors found the assimilation of 28.410 mg g -1 Ni. Once electroplating effluents have nickel, the presence of this element may limit the use of S. minima in order to treat such effluents.…”

Most metals disperse easily in environments and can be bioconcentrated in tissues of many organisms causing risks to the health and stability of aquatic ecosystems even at low concentrations. The use of plants to phytoremediation has been evaluated to mitigate the environmental contamination by metals since they have large capacity to adsorb or accumulate these elements. In this study we evaluate Salvinia minima growth and its ability to accumulate metals. The plants were cultivated for about 60 days in different concentrations of Cd, Ni, Pb and Zn (tested alone) in controlled environmental conditions and availability of nutrients. The results indicated that S. minima was able to grow in low concentrations of selected metals (0.03 mg L(-1) Cd, 0.40 mg L(-1) Ni, 1.00 mg L(-1) Pb and 1.00 mg L(-1) Zn) and still able to adsorb or accumulate metals in their tissues when cultivated in higher concentrations of selected metals without necessarily grow. The maximum values of removal metal rates (mg m(2) day(-1)) for each metal (Cd = 0.0045, Ni = 0.0595, Pb = 0.1423 e Zn = 0.4046) are listed. We concluded that S. minima may be used as an additional tool for metals removal from effluent.
