“…This study demonstrated a negative effect of cadmium on enzymatic activity of soil. Zaborowska et al (2017) also noted an adverse effect of cadmium applied at 40 to 200 mg kg −1 d.m. of soil on the activity of arylsulphatase, which deepened with an increasing level of soil contamination with Cd 2+ .…”

Purpose Determination of the effectiveness of white mustard and oats in immobilising cadmium as a soil contaminant and determining the role of cellulose and urea in restoring homeostasis in soil under pressure from Cd 2+. Materials and methods Soil samples were contaminated with cadmium (CdCl 2 •2 1 / 2 H 2 O) at 0, 4, 8 and 16 mg Cd 2+ kg −1. In order to reduce the negative impact of Cd 2+ , cellulose was introduced to the soil at the following rates: 0 and 15 g kg −1 and urea at 80 and 160 mg N kg −1. The yield of the above-ground parts and roots was determined on days 40 and 80 of the experiment, along with the cadmium content in the plant material. The enzyme activity was also determined, and the physical and chemical properties of the soil were determined on the day of the oats' (aftercrop) harvest. Results and discussion Contamination of soil with Cd 2+ at 4 to 16 mg kg −1 d.m. of soil reduced the yield of white mustard and oats. The tolerance index (TI) values indicate that oats (aftercrop) is more tolerant than white mustard of soil contamination with Cd 2+. Cadmium accumulated more intensely in roots compared with the above-ground parts of the plants. The translocation index (TF) indicates smaller Cd 2+ translocation from roots to above-ground parts, as it was below 1 in both plants. An addition of cellulose and nitrogen offsets the adverse impact of cadmium on plants. Arylsulphatase was the most sensitive to soil contamination with Cd 2+ , followed by dehydrogenases, catalase, β-glucosidase and urease, and alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase were the least sensitive. Contamination of soil with Cd 2+ changed its physical and chemical properties only slightly. Conclusions White mustard and oats have phytostabilisation potential with respect to soil contaminated with cadmium. Cellulose introduced to the soil and fertilisation with urea alleviated the negative impact of cadmium on the growth and development of plants.

“…Application to the soil of a sequence of experimental variables was preceded with soil fertilisation suitable for the specific crop. The form of fertilisation is described by Zaborowska et al (2017) and the fertilisation rate, expressed as a pure nutrient, was N 250, P 50, K 90, Mg 20, Cu 5, Zn 5, Mo 5, Mn 5 and B 0.33 (mg kg −1 of soil). The potential inhibition was analysed based on four major factors: (1) the degree of soil contamination with BPA: 0, 0.1, 2, 40, 800 mg BPA kg −1 DM of soil;…”

“…However, research in which the BPA toxicity for plants was determined even at the level of 1000 mg BPA kg −1 DM of soil contamination (Kim et al 2018) was conducted. One of the manifestations of its complex nature is the process of BPA glycosylation induced in plants, which produces secondary metabolites of mono-and di-O-β-dglucopyranosides without the oestrogen activity (Zaborowska et al 2017;Nakajima et al 2002).…”

“…The aerobic catabolism of bisphenols is catalysed by monooxygenases, phenol hydroxylase, which adds one atom from an oxygen molecule to an aromatic ring, and toluene/oxylen monooxygenase (TOMO), capable of hydroxylation of more than one position of the aromatic ring (Cafaro et al 2004). Furthermore, algae consume carbon dioxide for their growth, thereby inducing BPA transformation to derivatives of non-oestrogenic potential (Hirooka et al 2005;Zaborowska et al 2017).…”

Purpose The knowledge about the impact of BPA on soil health does not correspond to the great interest in its analogues. Therefore, a study was conducted to determine the potentially negative impact of BPA on the biochemical properties of soil. The study also evaluated the effectiveness of two biostimulants in eliminating potential homeostasis disorders caused by BPA. Materials and methods A pot experiment was conducted under supervised conditions. BPA at five contamination levels was added to the soil of the granulometric composition of sandy loam at 0, 0.1, 2, 40 and 800 mg BPA kg −1 of a dry matter (DM) of soil. The biochemical activity of the soil was interpreted through the activity of dehydrogenases (Deh), urease (Ure), catalase (Cat), acid phosphatase (Pac), alkaline phosphatase (Pal), arylsulphatase (Aryl) and β-glucosidase (Glu) whose activity was determined on days 5, 15 and 45 of the study. The biostimulative potential of Chlorella sp. and rhamnolipid 90 (which eliminates the undesirable effects of BPA on the parameters) was expressed with IF B-the factor of the impact of increasing of bisphenol (BP) soil contamination levels. The response of spring barley to increasing BPA pressure was analysed with the plant resistance index (RS). The study was made more comprehensive by determination of the macronutrient content in the plants. Results and discussion The sensitivity of individual enzymes to increasing bisphenol pressure on the 45th day of the experiment can be arranged in the following sequence: Deh > Ure > Glu > Pac > Cat > Aryl > Pal. Biostimulation of soil with Chlorella sp. gave better results than with rhamnolipid 90. A compilation of BPA 800 mg BPA kg −1 DM of soil and Chlorella sp. brought about an increase in the activity of Glu on the 45th day of the experiment and Pac, Pal and Aryl on the 5th day. Only at this contamination level did BPA stimulate the crop growth in all the parallel plots except in those biostimulated by Chlorella sp. Only algae significantly reduced the negative BPA impact on the N, Ca and K content in spring barley. Conclusions The experiment emphasised the significant inhibitory impact of BPA on the biochemical activity of soil which, in consequence, upset the microbial balance of soil processes. Chlorella sp. played a more important role in maintaining the soil homeostasis than rhamnolipid 90, which did not correspond to its negative impact on the yield of spring barley.

“…The close relationship between environmental pollution and abiotic stress has been documented in several studies in field (e.g., Alshaal et al 2017;Balakhnina and Nadezhkina 2017;Giron-Calva et al 2017;Hasanuzzaman et al 2017) or in in vitro studies (e.g., Leung 2017). So, several publications have been issued about the pollutants in the environment such as arsenic (Gupta and Chatterjee 2017), cadmium (Zaborowska et al 2017), copper (Kashulina 2017), mercury , nickel (Plekhanova et al 2017) or trace elements (Hasanuzzaman et al 2017;Saha et al 2017c;Shankar and Shikha 2017).…”

MANY global problems threaten our life on the Planet including climate changes, environmental pollution, food and soil security, energy crisis, etc. This environmental pollution has not only mainly serious risks and stress involving the human health and safety of the entire ecosystem but also the quantity and quality of crops productivity worldwide. Due to the great gap between the global food production and the global consumption, there is a crucial need to cultivate these contaminated lands sooner or later. Therefore, the removing of pollutants from soils and waters should be performed in frame of sustainable remediation and sustainable energy production accordingly. Depending on many factors (source and kind of pollutants, land use and the economics of water and soil resources, etc) many strategies should be addressed for the sustainable and integrated management of polluted lands. Nanoremediation is a promising strategy in controlling pollution and management. Three major applications of nanoremediation could be characterized including detection of pollution using nanosensors, prevention of pollution, purification and remediation of contamination. Further studies also concerning the impact of changing climate on the nanoremediation process in the agroecosystems should be considered. Thus, this review will focus on the evaluation of environmental nanoremediation and its strategy in polluted lands under climate changes. Using of nanotechnology in pollution control as well as the environmental pollution and its sustainable management also will be highlighted.Keywords: Environmental nanoremediation, Climate change, Pollution, Crop production, Environmental stress. IntroductionClimate changes are a great challenge facing the human kind as well as other living things. The production of crops and other agricultural features are extremely susceptible to changes in climate. So, these global changes will be caused major shifts in crop distribution due to climate changes in the future. Moreover, it has been estimated that climate changes are likely to reduce yields and/or damage crops in the 21 Removing of pollutants from soils and waters could be linked with both the sustainable remediation as well as sustainable energy production (Kovacs and Szemmelveisz 2017; Zheng and Shi 2017). Many strategies for the sustainable and integrated management of polluted lands should be addressed depending on several factors e.g., type of pollutants and their level, the purpose of land use after remediation, soil characterization and its topography, climate , cropping patterns and the availability of resources and their economics (El-Ramady et al. 2017;Saha et al. 2017a). Furthermore, a great debate concerning using of lands for crop food production (under growing global population) or energy crop production was and still for ages (Paschalidou et al. 2016). Therefore, a global and holistic strategy in facing the main three threats including hunger, lack of energy and pollution of environment as well as climate changes should be esta...
