Phytoremediation of soil contaminated by heavy oil with plants colonized by mycorrhizal fungi

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of phytoremediation on soils contaminated with heavy crude oil using plants infected by mycorrhizal fungi. Five plant species, Vetiveria zizanioides, Bidens pilosa, Chloris barbata, Eleusine indica, and Imperata cylindrica, infected with the species of mycorrhizal fungi Glomus mosseae, were selected for this study. The degradation of total petroleum hydrocarbons in soils and several physiological parameters of plants such as shoot length and biomass were … Show more

“…A much higher degradation of crude oil in contaminated soil by Leptochloa fusca (51%) and Brachiaria mutica (61%) was reported by Fatima et al [21]. Further, different degradation mechanisms of plants, such as uptake oil from soil and transformation inside the plant, have been reported [50,51]. Furthermore, it has been reported that combining plant and bacteria results in higher degradation of crude oil, i.e., in the range of 78% to 85% [21] and 85% [11].…”

“…The similar findings have also been reported previously. For example, Kuo et al (2014) found the B. pilosa inoculated with G. mosseae was able to increase degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons by 9% in soils after 64 days. Qin et al (2014) showed that AMF could enhance bph gene abundance and the growth of specific bacterial groups so as to enhance PCB dissipation.…”

“…The beneficial effect is also plant-specific, due to the contrasting root secretion, particularly in different aerobic and anaerobic conditions. So far, various plant species have been tested for the potential functional species with high efficiency in pollution remediation of typical OCs, such as PBDEs, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and pentachlorophenol (PCP), including the xerophyte species such as maize, ryegrass, tall fescue, lettuce and the hygrocolous species such as rice, zucchini (Huang et al, 2010;Wang et al, 2011a;Inui et al, 2011;Kuo et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2014;Qin et al, 2014;He et al, 2015;Zhang et al, 2015;Bizkarguenaga et al, 2016). As for PBDEs, the ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) and the rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars (Xiushui 134) were recommended as the most functional plant species for a cost-effective remediation of soils polluted by BDE-209 around an e-waste recycling area by a screening experiment coupling with regulation of soil redox status during plant growth (He et al, 2015).…”

“…Phytoremediation is a strategy that uses plant to degrade, stabilize and remove contaminants from soils, water and wastes (Yu and Gu 2008;Kuo et al 2014). Phytoremediation is an environmentally sound technology for pollution prevention, control and remediation.…”
