“…B. scoparia, commonly called summer-cypress, is also cultivated as an ornamental plant. Currently, research is being carried out on the possibility of using various species of Bassia (B. indica, B. scoparia) in the phytoremediation of salt-and metal-contaminated soils (Shelef et al 2012;Moubasher et al 2015;Aihemaiti et al 2018;Shi et al 2022). The possibility of using B. scoparia and its associated rhizosphere microflora is also being considered in the degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons in soils contaminated with crude oil (Moubasher et al 2015;Song et al 2021).…”

Bassia All. is a genus from the Amaranthaceae family, which was created by merging selected species belonging to the former Bassia and Kochia genera with those classified to Chenolea, Londesia, Kirilowia and Panderia. The reorganised Bassia genus currently comprises around 20 species, which are annual herbs or perennial subshrubs native to Eurasia and Africa. Bassia plants are well known for their therapeutic applications in folk medicine and traditional medical systems, and they are also used for nonmedical purposes. Some members of this genus, such as Bassia scoparia (syn. Kochia scoparia) is of great medical importance and economic value. The plant is cultivated in some regions of Asia as a crop to collect Kochiae fructus, which is used for both curative and food purposes. Phytochemical studies carried out on Bassia species indicate that these plants synthesize metabolites belonging to different groups of compounds (e.g., triterpene saponins, sterols, flavonoids, fatty acids, lignanamides, alkaloids, organic acids). Some of the structures are rarely found in the plant kingdom. Biological activity studies carried out on Bassia plants revealed various effects exerted by extracts and isolated compounds, including anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, antioxidant, antimicrobial, hypoglycemic, anti-obesity, etc. Modern research explained some of the mechanisms of action. This review covers literature from 1935 to 2022, and assembles and discusses data on phytochemistry, biological activity, as well as medical and nonmedical use of the representatives of the genus Bassia. In this review we present the current state of knowledge about the plants of the genus.

“…Nevertheless, in a similar way to what we observed for phenolic compound content, there is not a consistent pattern in response to salinity for the levels of oxalates. Other authors have found out that the increase in salinity in the growth medium of halophytes resulted in higher oxalate content [ 64 , 74 , 75 ].…”

In this work, we studied the combined effect of increased temperature and atmospheric CO2, salt and drought stress, and inoculation with plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on the growth and some nutritional parameters of the edible halophyte Salicornia ramosissima. We found that the increase in temperature and atmospheric CO2, combined with salt and drought stresses, led to important changes in S. ramosissima fatty acids (FA), phenols, and oxalate contents, which are compounds of great importance for human health. Our results suggest that the S. ramosissima lipid profile will change in a future climate change scenario, and that levels of oxalate and phenolic compounds may change in response to salt and drought stress. The effect of inoculation with PGPR depended on the strains used. Some strains induced the accumulation of phenols in S. ramosissima leaves at higher temperature and CO2 while not altering FA profile but also led to an accumulation of oxalate under salt stress. In a climate change scenario, a combination of stressors (temperature, salinity, drought) and environmental conditions (atmospheric CO2, PGPR) will lead to important changes in the nutritional profiles of edible plants. These results may open new perspectives for the nutritional and economical valorization of S. ramosissima.

The effects of irrigation with high-salinity water on phytoremediation e ciency have not yet been fully investigated. Here, a pot experiment was conducted to explore the effects of irrigation with three water resources (T1: deionized water, T2: natural brackish water, T3: NaCl salt water with salinity equal to that of natural brackish water) on cadmium (Cd) uptake by maize grown under different Cd pollution conditions (exogenous Cd: 0, 5, 10, 15 mg kg − 1 ). Salt stress and cation antagonism caused by brackish water both affected maize plant growth and Cd uptake. When exogenous Cd was added to the soil at 5, 10, and 15 mg kg − 1 , Cd accumulated in maize shoots at 5.55, 7.08, and 5.71 µg plant -1 in the T1 treatment, 4.08, 3.04, and 5.38 µg plant -1 in the T2 treatment, and 2.48, 3.44, and 5.33 µg plant -1 in the T3 treatment, respectively. Shoot Cd accumulation was signi cantly lower for treatments T2 and T3 than T1 at exogenous soil Cd concentrations of 5 and 10 mg kg − 1 , whereas no signi cant differences were observed among treatments T1, T2, and T3 when the exogenous Cd concentration was 15 mg kg − 1 .These ndings indicate that there was decreased phytoremediation e ciency in response to both salt stress and cation antagonism caused by brackish water when there were low soil Cd concentrations, but that this effect was negligible under high Cd pollution. Accordingly, brackish water irrigation can be considered during phytoremediation of soils contaminated with high levels of Cd to save freshwater resources.
