“…traits make perennial aromatic grasses appropriate ecological species for remediation of environmental pollution (Jones et al, 2015; Pandey, Rai, & Korstad, 2019). Although, the potential of perennial aromatic grasses for phytoremediation of differently degraded or polluted soils, waterbodies, and industrial areas has been well investigated (Gupta et al, 2013; Maiti & Kumar, 2016; Pandey et al, 2020). However, in order to achieve the goal of a complete biobased economy (aromatic plants significantly contribute in biopharma) the approach of growing diverse groups of perennial aromatic grasses on marginal lands is proved to be more sustainable (Allan et al, 2011; Von Cossel, 2020).…”

Enhancing productivity of perennial aromatic grasses on marginal lands through plant growth promoting rhizobacteria

The cultivation of perennial aromatic grasses on marginal lands is a socioeconomically and ecologically sustainable approach. However, the studies on assessment of the potential efficacies of consortium of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) in enhancing the productivity of perennial aromatic grasses on marginal lands are rare. In this study, therefore, we studied the effect of PGPR consortium (Pseudomonas protegens and two strains of Bacillus paramycoides) on yield and economics of four perennial aromatic grasses (Vetiveria zizanioides, Cymbopogon citratus, C. martinii, and C. winterianus) in slightly alkaline (pH >8.50) soil. A field experiment was established in a complete randomized block design with two treatments (i.e. with PGPR consortium and without PGPR consortium) and three replications. The changes in growth (height, number of slips, and leaf area index), productivity (fresh shoot-root biomass and oil yield), quality (important secondary metabolites), and economics (cost of cultivation, gross, and net return) in response to PGPR were observed at three harvests. The species-specific effects of PGPR were found on the growth and productivity of perennial aromatic grasses. On an average, the highest increase in growth and productivity with the effect of PGPR was found in V. zizanioides followed by other grasses. The highest oil yield 16.38, 71.14, 53.13, and 49.49 kg ha À1 were recorded at third harvest in PGPR consortium treated plots for V. zizanioides, C. citratus, C. martinii, and C. winterianus, respectively. The agronomical economics show the highest net return of 2094.95 $US in the cultivation of V. zizanioides with the application of PGPR.

“…Apart from being a high temperature tolerant Indian aromatic grass it has its medicinal value in several fields along with many skin care benefits. Its major by-product is its essential oil content, which is widely cultivated all over the world [5]. However, the dependence between soil properties (pH, electrical conductivity, organic content) and heavy metal accumulation potential in lemongrass will vary with rate of change in evapotranspiration and essential oil content.…”

The present review work has been emphasized on phytoremedial efficacy of lemongrass along with the production of medicinal and essential oil content from dried/dehydrated lemon grass. Change in temperature and pH content of soil affects the metal accumulation concentration along with change in rate of evapotranspiration rate. The rate of evapotranspiration by lemongrass corresponding to contaminated soil is a major factor to be considered. Heavy metals present in contaminated soil have major effect on plant health, on the rate of evapotranspiration, and essential oil content. In coming decades this plant will provide a sustainable solution to these problems aiding phytoremediation.
