“…However, the effectiveness of using this plant to remediate arsenic is questionable as the degradation of unharvested old or dead fronds containing high levels of arsenic could reintroduce arsenic into the treated soil. The use of fast‐growing high biomass plants to phytostabilize arsenic in the soil could be another alternative to prevent the translocation of arsenic to the leaves (Bergqvist & Greger, 2014), thus, avoiding the reintroduction of accumulated arsenic back into the soil.…”

This study explored the potential of Acacia mangium to remediate arsenic present in mine wastes and to determine the remediation mechanism of this plant for removing arsenic. A preliminary test using soil spiked with various arsenic concentrations showed that Acacia mangium was able to survive on arsenic‐contaminated soil with concentrations up to 500 mg kg−1 arsenic. Ex situ phytoremediation studies using mine wastes containing approximately 790 mg kg−1 arsenic also showed no toxicity effect on Acacia mangium throughout 5 months of treatment. Bioconcentration and translocation factors indicate that Acacia mangium utilizes phytostabilization as its main mechanism to uptake arsenic into the plant tissues. The use of the chemical lixiviants monoammonium phosphate and citric acid was also found to increase the translocation of arsenic from roots to stems of Acacia mangium with a 12‐ and six‐fold increase, respectively, compared with the un‐dosed plants. Further speciation analysis revealed that arsenic in the form of arsenate was the only arsenic species detected in the stems after being amended with monoammonium phosphate; thereby, suggesting a sensible strategy for more efficient targeted arsenic phytoremediation by Acacia mangium.

“…According to, e.g., Carbonell-Barrachina et al ( 1999 ), Bergqvist and Greger ( 2014 ), or Zhang et al ( 2017 ), inorganic forms of As are treated as more harmful than organic forms to living organisms. It is worth underlining, however, that some researchers have found organic As to be more toxic compared to inorganic forms (Mandal and Suzuki 2002 ; Yamanaka et al 2004 ; Yoon et al 2015 ).…”

The presence of cacodylic acid (dimethylarsinic acid, DMA) can be an important factor in limiting the abilities of young tree seedlings to adapt to unfavorable environmental conditions. For this reason, the aim of the study was to estimate the influence of different DMA additions (from 0.01 to 0.6 mM) to modified Knop solution to arsenic (As) and selected forms of this metalloid (As(III), As(V), DMA) phytoextraction by two-year-old Acer platanoides L. and Tilia cordata Miller seedlings. Additionally, the biomass and other elements important in As transport in plants were analyzed. Seedlings of both tree species were able to grow in all experimental systems except the one with the highest DMA concentration (0.6 mM). Exposure of tree seedlings was related to a general decrease in plant biomass. Phytoextraction of As in roots, stems, and leaves increased with a rise of DMA concentration in solution to the highest content of As in A. platanoides and T. cordata roots growing under 0.3 mM (135 ± 13 and 116 ± 14 mg kg−1 dry weight). Arsenic was accumulated mainly in roots, thereby confirming bioconcentration factor values BCF > 1 for all tree seedlings treated with DMA. Exposure of plants to low DMA concentrations (0.01 and 0.03 mM) was related to the transport of this element to aboveground parts, while increased DMA concentration in other experimental systems led to the limitation of As transport to stems, as confirmed by translocation factor values TF < 1. Changes in many other elements such as boron, silicon, phosphorus, or sulfur concentration indicated the possible influence of DMA on the transport of As from roots to leaves. The obtained results show that DMA can be an important factor in modulating As phytoextraction in the studied tree species.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s11356-018-04121-x) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
