“…However, phytoremediation also has some disadvantages. The plants with sufficient tolerance to metals for use in phytoremediation are usually rare herbs with small biomass and little economic value [18]. Hence, phytoremediation is quite slow, taking several years, or even decades, to halve the levels of metal contamination in soil [16,19].…”

Research ArticlePhytoremediation of Cadmium-Contaminated Soil by Two Jerusalem Artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) Genotypes Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) can be used not just for bioethanol production, bur potentially also for soil phytoremediation via removal of heavy metal pollutants. An experiment was carried out to characterize the phytoextraction efficiency of two Jerusalem artichoke genotype (NY2 and NY5) in cadmium (Cd) contaminated soil. After 90 days of growth, NY5 had greater plant biomass and greater Cd accumulation in tissues than NY2. The chlorophyll content and chlorophyll a fluorescence parameters were slightly higher when plants were grown in Cd-contaminated versus control soil. It implies that this examined NY2 and NY5 can extract more Cd than some hyperaccumulators, indicating that NY2 and NY5 can be applied to clean up Cd-contaminated soils. Compared with NY2, NY5 had higher phytoextraction potential due to more biomass and higher concentrations of Cd in tissues, and may therefore be the better candidates for phytoremediation in Cd-contaminated soil.

“…5 For female flowers, principal growth stage 5 (budding) is quite difficult to determine; usually it occurs at a similar time as that for male flowers. 6 The flowering stage in populations of monoecious hemp forms has to be determined separately for male and female flowers on the main sex -monoecious female seed plant (has compact inflorescences with female flowers dominating over male); in dioecious hemp forms, the flowering stage has to be determined separately for male flowers of male hemp and female flowers of female seed hemp. Growth stages 67-69 usually occur simultaneously with growth stages 71-75.…”

“…Besides, hemp has been suggested by various researchers for the production of briquettes (Mankowski, Kolodziej, 2008), bioethanol (Tutt, Olt, 2011), biogas (Prade et al, 2011) and biodiesel (Rehman et al, 2013). Furthermore, it has been shown to be suitable for crop rotation due to its phytoremediation characteristics (Linger et al, 2002).…”

The current paper discusses the characteristics of principal growth stages of hemp (Canabis sativa), provides a brief description of these stages and of the coding system according to the BBCH scale. The growing season of hemp is divided into nine principal growth stages: germination and sprouting (0), leaf development (1), formation of lateral shoots (2), stem elongation (3), inflorescence emergence (5), flowering (6), development of fruit (7), ripening of fruit (8) and senescence (9). The principal growth stages are subdivided into secondary stages based on their main distinctive features. The classification system of hemp growth stages presented in the paper is designed for hemp growers and researchers, including plant breeders, physiologists, entomologists and other agricultural producers. Using the uniform coding system of the phenological stages of hemp is a valuable tool to ensure a more efficient planning and implementation of crop and soil management practices and techniques.

“…Current research in this area now includes plants to remediate polluted soils and to facilitate improvement of soil structure, the innovative technique being known as phytoremediation (Brooks, 1998). The possibilities of using such plant species which are easily growing in different climates, and using their biomass in non-food industries, can make them ideal plants for phytoremediation purposes (Linger et al, 2002;Khan, 2003). Phytoremediation must be considered as a longterm strategy (Cunningham et al, 1995).…”
