Obsolete pesticides and application of colonizing plant species for remediation of contaminated soil in Kazakhstan

Abstract: In Kazakhstan, there is a problem of finding ways to clean local sites contaminated with pesticides. In particular, such sites are the deserted and destroyed storehouses where these pesticides were stored; existing storehouses do not fulfill sanitary standards. Phytoremediation is one potential method for reducing risk from these pesticides. Genetic heterogeneity of populations of wild and weedy species growing on pesticide-contaminated soil provides a source of plant species tolerant to these conditions. Thes… Show more

“…Such relation was also reported by Alamdar et al (2014). Genotoxic effect observed in our research concerned root cells, but it is proved that contaminants uptaken by roots from soil, may be translocated to the over ground part of plant, with ef-ficiency depending on the species (Nurzhanova et al 2013). In areas with contaminated soils, disturbances were observed in generative parts of plants in several native species: Chelidonium majus, Clematis vitalba, Cichorium intybus, Linaria vulgaris (Misik et al 2007), and also Artemisia vulgaris, Melilotus albus, Trifolium pretense, Salix caprea, Lamium maculatum and others (Solenska et al 2006, Greguskova andMicieta 2013).…”

“…This unexpected occurrence is because of the transportation of many of the POPs from the USA and Canada to Alaska, where they sank and settled in the ice sheets without being degraded (Braune et al 2005;Newton et al 2014). In general, POPs tend to evaporate in hot places and then condense back in colder regions (Nurzhanova et al 2013;Qiu 2013).…”

“…The vegetation reduces wind-blown dust and the movement of the pesticides from the site [156]. Nurzhanova et al [169,173,174] have provided a list of 17 pesticide-tolerant plants that grew in soils where high pesticide concentrations were present. The growth of plants in contaminated field soil often improves soil quality by increasing microbial populations and organism diversity, and by adding organic matter to the soil [10,26,53,189,190].…”

“…There are safety concerns at some of these sites because of leaking containers and spills. In many cases there is soil contamination at storage sites and surrounding areas because pesticides have been spilled and dispersed [169,173,174].…”
