The aim of the present paper was to establish protocols for the induction of embryogenic callus in Heliconia chartacea Lane ex Barreiros cv. Sexy Pink and Sexy Scarlet from ovaries sections. The experiment tested combinations between IAA (0; 1 and 2 mg L-1) and 2.4-D (0; 5; 10; 15 and 20 mg L-1) in the cultivars Sexy Pink and Sexy Scarlet. The cultivar Sexy Pink presented a higher frequency of callus development as compared to Sexy Scarlet. In the treatments A1D10 (1mg L-1 of IAA and 10mg L-1 of 2.4-D) and A2D5 (2 mg L-1 of IAA and 5mg L-1 of 2.4-D), the callus frequency of formation of the cultivar Sexy Pink corresponded to 100% of the inoculated explants, showing that the IAA associated with the 2.4-D induced a satisfactory callus formation response in the studied cultivar.

“…H. psittacorum or other Heliconia species have been studied to treat municipal and other type of wastewaters. Heliconia showed a very good RE for COD, TSS but a low to moderate RE for TN and TP [20,31,32,33]. The low RE of some pollutants and the negative RE for phosphorus could be attributed to either other factors mentioned above, or our HFCW system has not reached a steady state yet.…”

Constructed wetlands have promised sustainable treatment systems to remediate various industrial wastewaters, including textile. Textile wastewater contains a complex constituent of inorganic and organic pollutants such as dyes, toxic metals, surfactants, nutrients, and total dissolved solids. This preliminary study aims to evaluate the performance of Heliconia psittacorum in a horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland (HFCW) system for the remediation of textile wastewater. An HFCW system was set in a tank with a volume of 2 m3 divided by three sections where each section filled with coarse gravel, fine gravel, and sand media respectively resulted in a bed volume of 0.322 m3. The top of media was added compost then planted with Heliconia psittacorum. Diluted textile wastewater with a concentration of 20% was fed to the system in a continuous horizontal flow with an HRT of 2.7 days. The performance of the HFCW system showed water quality improvement from the wastewater within 11 weeks of observation. DO increased from < 2 to around 4 mg/L, pH and conductivity increased considerably. High decrease in NH4 and TN concentrations in the effluent of the HFCW system were observed with fluctuated removal efficiency (RE). Maximum RE for ammonia, TN, TSS, and COD was > 80%. Although showing a decreasing pattern during observation, phosphorus was not effectively removed by Heliconia psittacorum in the studied HFCW system. Cleaner effluent was observed than much dirty and black colour of influent. Heliconia psittacorum grew well with increased shoot height and numbers of new plant seedlings. The long-term observation was needed for Heliconia psittacorum in the HFCW system to reach a steady state and to examine its potential to remediate textile wastewater.
