“…In the present investigation, the growth, Ni-TI, RTI, and STI of maize seedlings were negatively affected by Ni treatment. Such impacts of Ni stress were previously reported in different plant species [35,36] . It was recorded that roots were more sensitive to Ni stress than shoots [37] , which was displayed in this study as reduced root/shoot length ratio and RTI % under Ni stress.…”

“…TF, EC, and BCF are considered for evaluating a plant as hyperaccumulator of a metal and having potential for phytoremediation [39]. TF is a ratio of heavy metals in plant shoot to that in plant root [1,39]. EC depicts the heavy metal element concentration in above-ground plant part (shoot) divided by this heavy metal element concentration in the soil [40].…”

“…Pollution due to heavy metals (HM) is a global issue and levels of contamination vary from place to place. Based on their toxicity in the environment, among all, heavy metals of major concern include As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn [1][2][3]. Discharge of industrial, municipal and agricultural waste water, and sewage into the rivers has been identified as a significant route of HMs into the aquatic resources [4].…”

The present study was carried out to evaluate the effects of different fungal species on the metal uptake from paper sludge by Hemarthria compressa L. Paper sludge (PS) in various concentrations (0, 30% and 60%) were used with four treatments of two fungal species (F0 = Control, F1 = Aspergillus niger, F2 = Trichoderma pseudokoningii, F3 = A. niger + T. pseudokoningii). Paper sludge as rooting medium steadily influenced growth and physio-biochemical attributes of H. compressa in F0. Results revealed discrete variations in growth attributes with different PS concentrations and each fungal treatment. The maximum damages in ionic homeostasis (Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+) due to PS toxicity were evident in parallel with declined chlorophyll concentration. The highest growth, total chlorophyll and biomass of the plants were observed when PS was treated with combined fungal strains (F3). Translocation factor decreased with F3 that is indicative of changes in Cd, Pb, and Cu movement to shoot from root. The plants with combined fungal treatment also showed greater catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and peroxidase (POD) activity. Ions, such as Ca, Mg, and Na, also increased gradually with combined fungal treatment. The correlation matrix displayed a close association among diverse fungal and PS levels with multiple plant attributes. PCA-Biplot confirmed the outcome of correlational analyses among different characters of H. compressa. The combined fungal mediate the extraction of heavy metals from the paper sludge by H. compressa recommends the high accumulation of heavy metal (HM) and possible reutilization of metal free sludge as a fertilizer, for application in cultivated fields. Furthermore, the effects of fungal species on HM attenuation in PS are linear and can be used in different habitats. Advancement in such research work will also be helpful in understanding the mechanisms and enhancing the ability of other native microbes to remediate metals.

“…Besides these facts, excessive Ni in the land has become a devastating threat to crops’ growth, development, and productivity [ 8 ]. Ni toxicity reduced the intake of CO 2 , declined photosynthesis, chlorophyll contents, and relative water [ 9 ], and impaired cell division and elongation [ 10 ]. Consequently, the initiation of oxidative damage annoys the balance between antioxidants and reactive oxygen species (ROS) [ 11 ], damaging the nucleic acids, proteins, and organelles’ membranes [ 12 ].…”

Phytoremediation of nickel by quinoa: Morphological and physiological response

et al. 2022

The amount of soil contaminated with heavy metal increases due to urbanization, industrialization, and anthropogenic activities. Quinoa is considered a useful candidate in the remediation of such soil. In this pot experiment, the phytoextraction capacity of quinoa lines (A1, A2, A7, and A9) against different nickel (Ni) concentrations (0, 50, and 100 mg kg-1) were investigated. Required Ni concentrations were developed in polythene bags filled with sandy loam soil using nickel nitrate salt prior to two months of sowing and kept sealed up to sowing. Results showed that translocation of Ni increased from roots to shoots with an increase in soil Ni concentration in all lines. A2 line accumulated high Ni in leaf compared to the root as depicted by translocation factor 3.09 and 3.21 when grown at soil having 50 and 100 Ni mg kg-1, respectively. While, in the case of root, A7 accumulated high Ni followed by A9, A1, and A2, respectively. There was a 5–7% increased seed yield by 50 mg kg-1 Ni in all except A1 compared to control. However, growth and yield declined with a further increase in Ni level. The maximum reduction in yield was noticed in A9, which was strongly linked with poor physiological performance, e.g., chlorophyll a, b, and phenolic contents. Ni concentrations in the seed of all lines were within the permissible value set (67 ppm) by FAO/WHO. The result of the present study suggests that quinoa is a better accumulator of Ni. This species can provide the scope of decontamination of heavy metal polluted soil. The screened line can be used for future quinoa breeding programs for bioremediation and phytoextraction purpose.
