“…There were no signs of phytotoxic effects on plants and their yields, which allows for a positive assessment of the grass mixture usefulness in phytoremediation of soils contaminated with heavy metals. The exceptional tolerance of grassland communities to the presence of xenobiotics in soil was emphasized in their studies by [8]. When explaining the mechanism of high immunity of grass to the contamination of soil with metals, it is indicated that there is very limited translocation of metals from roots to shoots of grass [11].…”

“…Compared to annual crops, grassland plants, including lawns, are characterized by a high uptake rate of nutrients introduced into substrata with sludge, and they ensure the continuity of soil cover [5][6][7][8][9]. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the influence of soil-applied municipal sewage sludge and green waste compost on yielding Festuca arundinacea lawn mixture and the accumulation of heavy metals in grass biomass to decide on the effectiveness of metals extraction from cultivated substrata.…”

During a six-year study on the influence of sewage sludge and green waste compost (in a dose of 20 Mg TS•ha -1 ) on yielding and heavy metals accumulation, Festuca arundinacea lawn mixture was used, consisting of 60% Festuca arundinacea of type Asterix + 15% Poa pratensis of type Opal + 15% Festuca rubra of type Areta + 10% Lolium perenne of type Pimperal. The subject of the study was the effect of these materials on yielding, changes in species composition of the sward, and the contents of copper, nickel, lead, and zinc in the aboveground parts of plants. The materials varied according to the fertilizing value and heavy metals content. Sewage sludge was rich in fertilizing components but also highly contaminated with heavy metals. Green waste compost contained large amounts of sand and the content of metals was slightly higher than in the subsoil to which it had been incorporated. The studied materials were found to have a stimulative effect on yielding plants. Yields obtained under the influence of sewage sludge and compost were similar. Changes in the species composition of the sward were connected to the durability of particular grass species used in the mixture. Despite the varied loads of heavy metals that were incorporated into soil with the used materials, they did not cause any significant increase of metals content in substratum, with the exclusion of copper incorporated into soil with sludge. Loads of metals incorporated into soil with sludge caused a significant increase of nickel and zinc in the aboveground parts of grass compared to the content of these metals in other variants of the experiment. The study found varied levels of metals uptake from soil by plants. The substratum with metals-contaminated sewage sludge demonstrated the highest uptake.

and Zn (122.6 mg·kg -1 d.m.). In turn, after the second year of vegetation, all of the tested metals are characterized by a lower absorption as compared to the first year. In the case of reed canary grass, Cd and Zn content in the biomass after the second year of vegetation was similar to the control, while the Ni concentration was lower in relation to the control. In the case of Miscanthus giganteus L., it was observed that the concentration of Ni and Zn in the biomass after the second year of vegetation was similar to the control, while the Cd content varied in dependence on the applied fertilizer.

The main aim of the study, conducted in 2007-2008, was to define the influence of nitrogen levels 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 mg N dm -3 applied to grass lawns on the content of metallic microelements: iron, manganese, zinc and copper and on their quantitative ratios in turf grass. The study was carried out on a 2-year-old lawn, composed of a mixture of lawn grasses species and varieties: perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) var. Grasslands Nui (45%), tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb) Finelawn (25%), red fescue (Festuca rubra Hack.) Olivia (10%), red fescue (Festuca rubra Hack.) Boreal (15%) and Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) Balin (5%). With the exception of copper, the nitrogen fertilization raised the content of iron, manganese and zinc in aerial plant parts. The application of nitrogen (as ammonium nitrate) increased the uptake of nutrients by aerial plant parts: Fe to 143.0%, Mn -227.2%, Zn -233.3% Cu -180.7%, and modified the ratios between amounts of the microelements. In general, it has been demonstrated that nitrogen nutrition of plants grown on ornamental lawns, within ranges of N -150 to N -200, increased the ratios of Fe : Mn : Zn : Cu. The best ornamental quality of lawns was obtained where the aerial plant parts contained (in mg kg -1 d.m.): Fe 231. and Cu 16.9-17.6. These ranges could be recommended as preliminary guidelines for ornamental lawns. In practice, considering the positive and stimulating influence of nitrogen nutrition on crops, the chemical composition of plants and the uptake of microelements by a mixture of grasses on ornamental lawns, it is crucial to monitor actual fertilization by taking into account losses of nutrients. These losses are caused by intensive uptake of nutrients by the aerial plant parts and due to the leaching of nutrients from the rhizosphere. It is necessary to replenish lost elements using mineral fertilizers.
