“…Even so, our results coincide with those of the previously mentioned Marchiol et al [36] and Brunetti et al [37] in that rapeseed behaves as a Cd-, Cu-, and Zn-tolerant plant and has the ability to accumulate several metals simultaneously. Rapeseed displayed high TF values for Cd and Zn, showing intensive transport of these metals from roots to the aboveground biomass as a green light for the phytoextraction application, but rather low BCF values revealed that rapeseed is not suitable enough for this purpose.…”

“…In general, plants from contaminated soil at the end of the vegetation produced more biomass and larger seeds, as well as exposed higher resistance to pests in comparison to plants grown on uncontaminated soil. Similar findings were obtained by Marchiol et al [36] and Brunetti et al [37], as both studies indicate that rapeseed exhibited diminutive symptoms of toxicity when grown on HMcontaminated soil under greenhouse conditions. Ghnaya et al [38] tested the resistance of four B. napus cultivars to Cd and Zn stress and concluded that the response depends on both cultivar and metal.…”

“…Additionally, the presence of compost and strains of Bacillus licheniformis stimulates the removal of metals from the soil and accumulation in the tissues of the oilseed rape. A higher contents of Cr, Pb, Zn, Cd, Ni, and Cu were found in roots than in stems [12]. In biomass of Brassica napus L. from agricultural fields irrigated with sewage was accumulated about twice more of Zn and Cu in compared with control [13].…”

Abstract. Brassica napus L. is a known bioaccumulator of copper, zinc, cadmium, lead, chromium, nickel and arsenic from soils. The metal ions are accumulated in the roots, stems, leaves and seeds of the oilseed rape. The samples of soils and plants were collected in the area around the Turów power station (Bogatynia city, Lower Silesia). The soil samples were collected from the surface layer of 0-25 cm. Roots, stems and pods of the oilseed rape were used in the study. The environmental samples were digested in HNO 3 , 60%, using the Microwave Digestion System. Metal concentrations have been dermined through the FAAS method. Three heavy metals -zinc, copper and lead -have been analyzed. The content of zinc was higher than the content of copper in all samples (plants and soils). In the roots of the oilseed rape higher concentration of metals compared to other parts of the plant was observed. In the soil samples, there was no correlation between the concentration of pollution and the distance from the power plant. Permissible concentrations of heavy metals relative to the standard according to the Polish Ministry of Environment Regulation from September 1 st , 2016, have not been exceeded. The permissible pollution indexes (Wn) in soils were exceeded compared to the geochemical background in uncontaminated soils of Poland. The bioaccumulation coefficients of heavy metals indicate lower metal concentrations in plants than in soils

“…(3) combine the use of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) like Bacillus licheniformis to enhance soil metal bioavailability for increasing the efficiency of phytoremediation (Brunetti et al 2011;Mayak et al 2004). Enrichment coefficient and transfer coefficient reflect the ability of plants to transfer heavy metals from soil to plant and from root to shoot, respectively, the greater of the two coefficients, the stronger of its transfer ability (Salt et al 1995;Pulford and Watson 2003).…”

Roles of Koelreuteria bipinnata as a suitable accumulator tree species in remediating Mn, Zn, Pb, and Cd pollution on Mn mining wastelands in southern China

et al. 2015

The necessity and urgency of remediating soil polluted with heavy metals have been recognized both politically and socially at the global level. Phytoremediation is a sustainable technology to remove or stabilize heavy metals in soil at former mine sites. The aim of this study was to clarify the ability of the tree species Koelreuteria bipinnata to phytoremediate heavy metal (Mn, Zn, Pb, and Cd)-contaminated soils. Concentrations of the four heavy metals were measured in soils from an un-remediated plot and from three K. bipinnata stands of different ages at the former Xiangtan manganese (Mn) mine, also forest stand growth and heavy metal concentrations were measured within different tissue of trees at three stands planted in heavy metal-contaminated soil for different years. The results showed that stand biomass of trees increased from 2.32 t ha -1 for 3-year-old trees, through 34.11 t ha -1 at 5 years, to 102.06 t ha -1 at 9 years. Total and individual heavy metal concentrations accumulated in the trees also increased with stand age; 9-year-old trees had accumulated 2.18 times the total heavy metals as the 3-year-old trees. Furthermore, soil heavy metal concentrations significantly (p \ 0.05) decreased as stand age increased; total heavy metal concentrations in the contaminated soils remediated by 9-year-old trees were 85.29 % lower than its un-remediated plot. The results indicate that K. bipinnata is a suitable accumulator species to remediate Mn, Zn, Pb, and Cd pollution on mining wasteland.
