“…However, a lot of studies have focused on the metal tolerance and metal concentration in hyperaccumulator tissues [39,[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59], but ignored the biomass production, which limited the applicability of results in terms of actual phytoextraction. For example, fast-growing plant as poplar (Populus deltoids Â Populus nigra) exhibited high phytoextraction efficiency with high biomass production (Tab.…”

Research ArticlePhytoremediation of Cadmium-Contaminated Soil by Two Jerusalem Artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) Genotypes Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) can be used not just for bioethanol production, bur potentially also for soil phytoremediation via removal of heavy metal pollutants. An experiment was carried out to characterize the phytoextraction efficiency of two Jerusalem artichoke genotype (NY2 and NY5) in cadmium (Cd) contaminated soil. After 90 days of growth, NY5 had greater plant biomass and greater Cd accumulation in tissues than NY2. The chlorophyll content and chlorophyll a fluorescence parameters were slightly higher when plants were grown in Cd-contaminated versus control soil. It implies that this examined NY2 and NY5 can extract more Cd than some hyperaccumulators, indicating that NY2 and NY5 can be applied to clean up Cd-contaminated soils. Compared with NY2, NY5 had higher phytoextraction potential due to more biomass and higher concentrations of Cd in tissues, and may therefore be the better candidates for phytoremediation in Cd-contaminated soil.

“…Halophytes remove salts from soils through different processes such as salt excluding, excreting, or accumulating by their morphological, anatomical, and physiological adaptations in their organelle level and cellular level (Hasanuzzaman et al, 2014). Some studies have also shown the ability of halophytic plants to remove heavy metals from normal and salt-affected soils (Manousaki & Kalogerakis, 2009;Nedjimi & Daoud, 2009). …”

“…The data reveals that the accumulation of Cd was mainly seen in all parts of the plant and was progressive when increasing amount of exogenous Cd was applied. Different application levels of Cd (up to 800 µM) were used in researches related with Cd toxicity (Yang et al, 2004;Nedjimi and Daoud, 2009;Goncalves et al, 2009;Meng et al, 2009). By previous studies performed by Wagner (1993), and Sanita di Toppi and Gabrielli (1999), Cd concentrations (in mM) were found to be between 0.04-0.32 in unpolluted and 0.32-1 in moderate level of polluted soils, respectively.…”

In order to make assessments in understanding of physiological and genotoxic effects of imposing cadmium (Cd) on photosynthetic pigment contents along with the changes occurring in genetic material of Kalanchoe plants were used in relation to various Cd-treatments. Young plantlets were originated from a single host plant as clones, and developed in vitro. Developed clones were grown in standard pots with daily watering of Hoagland solution (20 ml) containing different concentrations of cadmium chloride for two months. Cd concentrations of the collected samples were measured by employing ICP-OES and RAPD-PCR technique was applied for detecting the genotoxic effects of Cd. After two month of experimental period, the comparisons between unexposed and exposed Kalanchoe clone groups revealed reductions in photosynthetic pigment contents, especially at the highest level of Cd exposure and a genomic instability when application of Cd concentration increases. RAPD-PCR analyses demonstrated the distinguishable banding pattern in number and band intensities between Cd-treated and control groups. In addition, progressive Cd accumulations in leaves, stems and roots of plant samples were observed when the application of exposure level increased.
