“…The amount of Cd bound in the cell wall in roots of Norway spruce seedlings treated with the same Cd concentration (0.5 µm) for 2 weeks was shown to be nearly 95 % of the total amount taken up in the roots (unpublished). Further, addition of Ca has been shown to reduce absorption of Cd in excised barley roots (Kawasaki and Moritsugu 1987).…”

“…Calcium is known to have a positive influence on the growth of plants and also to ameliorate the toxicity of heavy metals (Marschner 1995, Hagemeyer 1999). Further, Ca may also decrease the uptake, translocation and accumulation of Cd and Cu in plants (Jarvis et al 1976, Wallace et al 1980, Tyler and McBride 1982, Kawasaki and Moritsugu 1987, Saleh et al 1999, Österås and Greger 2003. Cadmium and Cu are known to be toxic to plants in low concentrations (Hagemeyer 1999, Liu et al 2003 and may reduce the Ca content of roots, shoots, leaves, wood and/or bark of trees (Burton et al 1986, Gussarsson 1994, Arduini et al 1998, Kim et al 2003, Österås and Greger 2003 and other plants (Ouzounidou 1994, Dražić et al 2004.…”

The accumulation of calcium (Ca), copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd) in roots and stem of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst) was examined. Two-year-old Norway spruce seedlings were treated with elevated concentrations of Ca, Cd or Cu, or as combinations of Ca with Cu or Cd in nutrient solutions for three months. The stem was divided into bark, wood formed during the treatment period (new wood), and wood formed before the treatment period (old wood). The accumulation of the metals in stem and roots increased with addition of the respective metal into nutrient solution. Addition of Cu decreased the accumulation of Ca in roots and wood, and Ca addition decreased the accumulation of Cu in the new wood. By adding Ca in combination with Cu the accumulation of Cu in the stem was decreased even more by Ca and the negative effect of Cu on the Ca content in the stem was diminished. Addition of Cd decreased the accumulation of Ca in wood, especially the old wood, and Ca addition decreased the accumulation of Cd in roots, bark and new wood. By adding Ca in combination with Cd the Ca content was reduced in the bark, instead of in the old wood.

“…Calcium is known to have a favourable effect on plant growth and to reduce the toxicity of heavy metals (Hagemeyer 2004;Marschner 2011). Several studies have claimed that Ca has the potential to reduce Cu absorption, transport, and accumulation in plants (Kawasaki and Moritsugu 1987;Österås and Greger 2006). On the other hand, the antagonistic relationship between Cu and Mn detected in faba bean has been observed early in the literature (Gupta 1972;Nautiyal and Chatterjee 2002), and some reports suggest that Cu and Mn compete for a common site for uptake but that Cu appears to have a greater affinity than Mn (Harrison et al 1983).…”

Imbalanced nutrition has a major impact on crop productivity, particularly in hyper-arid environments, and precise interpretation is essential for designing appropriate nutrient management strategies. Compositional nutrient diagnosis (CND) was used to identify nutritional imbalances of multiple nutrients (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu) in wheat and faba bean cultivated in Kharga Oasis, Egypt. Significant nutrient interactions were also assessed using principal component analysis. Due to large differences in water and soil characteristics, wheat and faba bean yields from the surveyed area varied greatly, ranging from 2118 to 8211 and 1373 to 4962 kg ha-1, respectively. The CND indexes for the low-yield subpopulation of wheat were negative for P, Ca, and Zn, with average values of -0.82, -2.66, and -1.26, but positive for K, Mg, Fe, and Mn with average values of 4.80, 4.92, 1.70, and 0.57, respectively. In faba bean, N, P, Ca, and Zn were negative, with average values of -1.73, -0.67, -8.19, and -1.41, but K, Mg, Fe, Mn, and Cu were positive with average values of 2.62, 0.50, 1.32, 1.10, and 0.40, respectively. Synergistic interactions P-Zn and Mg-Fe, as well as antagonistic interactions P-Mg, P-Fe, Zn-Fe, Zn-Mg, Ca-Cu, N-Mn, Mn-Cu, and P-Ca, were evident from the principal component analysis of the data. This investigation reveals that the decline in crop yields in the study area is due to nutritional imbalance induced by a deficiency of Ca, Zn, and P and a surplus of Mg, K, Fe, and Mn, in addition to nutrient antagonism.

To study the mechanism of chelant-metal complexes to be absorbed into plant roots in the presence of different concentration chelating agents, the sites, pathways, and mechanism of absorption of Cu-EDDS complex ([S, S']-ethylene diamine disuccinic acid) in maize (Zea mays L.) primary roots were systematically studied. The results showed that, at low concentrations of the Cu-EDDS complex (<200 μmol L −1 ) in hydroponic culture, the complex was passively absorbed mainly from the apoplastic spaces where lateral roots penetrate the endodermis and the cortical region into the root xylem, the lateral root zone were the main absorption sites. At higher concentrations (<3,000 μmol L −1 ), under hydroponic culture and soil culture conditions, the passage cells, which form a physiological barrier controlling ion absorption, were either injured or killed, and the complex could enter the root xylem. Injury to the physiological barrier was a key factor in the complex being absorbed by roots in substantially larger quantities. In addition, the histochemical analysis of rubeanic acid can also be used for other researches involving Cu, and the negative-pressure measuring device provides a new research tool for studying the apoplastic absorption of other metal-chelating complexes, molecules, and ions.
