“…[23] reported a reduction in the thickness of both layers, along with the occurrence of two rows of this particular layer in the Dodonia plant, which were influenced by varying levels of pollution. The findings presented in this study partially corroborate the results reported by [25], wherein an augmentation in the thickness of the spongy layer was observed in response to exposure to hydrocarbon pollutants. However, it was noted that the palisade layer remained unaffected by these pollutants.…”

Pollution is the quantitative change that occurs to one or more of the elements of the environment that would harm the life of the living organism and weaken the ability of the environment to continue its production. The current research was carried out to study the impact of spent engine oil pollution on some anatomical leaf characters of Eruca Sativa. The pots of sandy soils were contaminated by adding spent engine oil levels of 0.0, 2.5, 5.0, 15.0 and 30.0 ml.3kg-1. From the results, it is noted that a convergence and a slight decrease in the thickness of the cuticle layer of the upper and lower surface of the leaf at the levels of added oil 1.5 and 2.5 ml.kg -1. It was observed, that there was a relative decrease in the thickness of the upper and lower epidermal cells layer at the low levels of addition, with the increase in the decrease in thickness with the increase in the levels of spent oil. And it was found that a clear increase in the thickness of the palisade layer with the increase in the levels of spent oil addition compared to the thickness of the layer in the leaves of plants grown in soil with an addition level of 0 ml.kg-1. It is clear that the dimensions of the stomata for the upper and lower leaf surface of the plant leaf increased and took a behavior that corresponded to the increase in the levels of spent engine oil.

“…When the oil's volatile fractions enter the seed coat, they reduce seed germination. Olaranont et al (2021) studied the effect of crude oil on the physiological and anatomical characteristics of Ipomoea pes-caprae and reported a reduction in four physiological characteristics; chlorophyll content, leaf width, leaf length, and survival time. The anatomical characteristics of Ipomoea pes-caprae, including the thickness of leaf abaxial and adaxial cutin and leaf blades, and the height of the leaf's spongy layer, were also impacted by the contamination.…”

Egyptian Journal of Botany http://ejbo.journals.ekb.eg/ Review 43 E NVIRONMENTAL pollution is exacerbated by the rise in petroleum hydrocarbons due to exploration, production, transportation, and industrialization. This requires immediate remediation. Although crude oil removal using conventional techniques is efficient for cleaning up aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, it is costly and requires specialized staff and equipment. Despite their negative environmental consequences, chemical compounds such as dispersants, cleansers, emulsifiers, biosurfactants, and soil oxidizers are highly utilized. Phytoremediation and bioremediation have emerged as cost-effective and environmentally friendly technologies. This paper aims to review the impacts of crude oil pollution and the phytoremediation of polluted ecosystems. We have reviewed various phytoremediation/bioremediation mechanisms and environmental factors. Additionally, we have discussed the degradation of crude petroleum, factors affecting petroleum hydrocarbon bioremediation, and the environmental consequences, such as DNA and epigenetic mutations. We have also compared the economics of phytoremediation and restoration of polluted sites with conventional technology. Plants can remediate the environment through phytodegradation, phytostabilization, phytovolatilization, evapotranspiration, and phytoaccumulation. The microbial activities in the plant rhizosphere enhance the degradation and accumulation of the pollutants and modulate their bioavailability, thereby remediating the polluted areas and stabilizing the soil fertility.

“…Crude oil gets to the environment through many ways such as operational discharge, during transportation, storage tanks and pipeline linkages, effluents from refinery and industry, atmospheric fall out, biosynthesis, accidental or indiscriminate discharges, and natural oil seepage [9,10]. It has therefore been observed that hydrocarbon laden soil harbor heavy metals, in quantities that could adversely affect plant growth and yield [11][12][13], alter soil composition and hinder the population and activities of vital soil dwellers [14,15].…”

“…This heavy metal content of oil-contaminated soil imposes metabolic burden and growth inhibition on most of the plant species. Plant species strongly response differently in their anatomy and physiology to oil pollution [13]. According to Dulama et al [18] and Oladejo et al [19] plants species, plant age, plant part, soil composition, geographic and atmospheric conditions are factors that influence the rate of heavy metals absorption by plant.…”

The general increase of heavy metal content in the soil has been largely caused by crude oil spillage. This study investigates the possibility of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Miller) to sorb heavy metals present in crude oil. Crude oil of 0 mL (control), 75 and 150 mL were mixed thoroughly with 15 kg of loamy soil (dry weight) in perforated plastic buckets, as the experimental pots and left for 4 days before transplanting tomato seedlings. After 12 weeks of transplanting, heavy metals analysis was carried out on plant’s fruits, leaves, stems and roots. Physicochemical analyses show that control soil had the lowest organic carbon (3.07 %) while 150 mL had the highest mean organic carbon content (8.24 %). The silt, clay and sand constituents were not significantly different (p > 0.05) in both treated and untreated soil. The control had the least pH value (6.1) while the lead (Pb) content in soil was highest in 150 mL (0.33 mg/kg) but was not significantly different (p > 0.05) from control (0.26 ) and 75 mL (0.30 mg/kg). Lead (Pb) and Cadmium (Cd) were not detected in leaves and fruits. However, bioaccumulation factor (BAF) of Cd and Ni in stem were greater than 1. Although, the concentrations of these heavy metals falls below toxic levels, its consumption could lead to adverse health effects in both man and animals through bioaccumulation or biomagnification. HIGHLIGHTS Countries with poor hydrocarbon pollution regulation are more challenging with oil spills, either through accidental discharges or indiscriminate disposal of hydrocarbon waste Plants essentially need some metals such as iron, copper among others, for their growth and other metabolic activities. However, at excess of specific limits, these metals adversely affect plant growth In this study, bioaccumulation factors (BAF) of Cd and Ni in the stem were greater than 1, this shows that the tomato plant is a hyperaccumulator of Cd and Ni from the soil GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
