“…The use of other plants as phytoextractors of Ni and Zn as reported in the literature [68][69][70][71][72] supported the present finding of using A. viridis. For example, Favas et al [68] studied the correlation between Ni concentration in the soil and its concentration in the plant (Alyssum serpyllifolium) in Portugal.…”

Human health risk and phytoremediation of potentially toxic metals (PTMs) in the edible vegetables have been widely discussed recently. This study aimed to determine the concentrations of four PTMs, namely Cd, Fe, Ni, and Zn) in Amaranthus viridis (leaves, stems, and roots) collected from 11 sampling sites in Peninsular Malaysia and to assess their human health risk (HHR). In general, the metal levels followed the order: roots > stems > leaves. The metal concentrations (µg/g) in the leaves of A. viridis ranged from 0.45 to 2.18 dry weight (dw) (0.05–0.26 wet weight (ww)), 74.8 to 535 dw (8.97–64.2 ww), 2.02 to 7.45 dw (0.24–0.89 ww), and 65.2 to 521 dw (7.83–62.6 ww), for Cd, Fe, Ni, and Zn, respectively. The positive relationships between the metals, the plant parts, and the geochemical factions of their habitat topsoils indicated the potential of A. viridis as a good biomonitor of Cd, Fe, and Ni pollution. With most of the values of the bioconcentration factor (BCF) > 1.0 and the transfer factor (TF) > 1.0, A. viridis was a very promising phytoextraction agent of Ni and Zn. Additionally, with most of the values of BCF > 1.0 and TF < 1.0, A. viridis was a very promising phytostabiliser of Cd and Fe. With respect to HHR, the target hazard quotients (THQ) for Cd, Fe, Pb, and Zn in the leaves of A. viridis were all below 1.00, indicating there were no non-carcinogenic risks of the four metals to consumers, including children and adults. Nevertheless, routine monitoring of PTMs in Amaranthus farms is much needed.

“…Generally, higher Pb solubility with lower soil pH is therefore available for plant uptake. 7,54 Nevertheless, the highest Pb concentration did not exceed 1000 mg kg −1 in the lateral roots in T4 and T6, and the root BCF values were less than 0.5 in this study (Table 3 and Fig. S3†).…”

“…Under similar Pb concentration treatments, the Pb concentration in the roots of R. chinensis was higher than that of other species. 1,51,54,61 This might be related to the lower soil pH in this experiment. Generally, higher Pb solubility with lower soil pH is therefore available for plant uptake.…”

“…The use of agents such as chelate, and humic acid is also seen as an effective approach in order to support the accumulative properties of plants and increase their capacity. As a matter of fact, it is known that ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) as a synthetic chelator has an effect on the metal bioavailability potential of plants (Arshad et al, 2020;Konkolewska et al, 2020;Saffari & Saffari, 2020). Moreover, it is stated that humic acids, which are considered the most active components of soil and compost organic matter, demonstrate physiological, morphological, biochemical and genetic effects on plants by forming strong bonds with toxic heavy metal ions (Ferrara & Brunetti, 2008;Shehata et al, 2019), and are also effective in mitigating the negative effects of heavy metals on plants (Özkay et al, 2016).…”

The increase of industrialization, the overuse chemical fertilisers and mining activities are brought about heavy metal-led environment pollution, especially agricultural land. This leads to more boron (B) contamination and accumulation in the soil. This study was carried out to evaluate B uptake from the soil of ornamental cabbage grown as a hyperaccumulator plant under B stress conditions in a controlled greenhouse on plant morphology, physiology, antioxidant enzyme activity the effects of humic acid (50mg kg-1 B + 2% humic acid -HA) and chelate [0.5 g kg-1 chelate (EDTA)] applications. According to the results, especially chelate application significantly increased the B uptake of the plant, and B accumulation was higher in the plant shoot than in the root. However, HA and chelate applications brought out the negative effects of B stress on growth and physiological characteristics and reinforced the increases in malondialdehyde (MDA) content and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) enzyme activities. In conclusion, this study shows that HA and chelate additions increase the efficiency of the use of ornamental cabbage to remove excess boron from the soil. According to these results, it is possible to increase the use of ornamental cabbage for phytoremediation purposes, especially with chelate application.
