“…The results of the present study were the mean of three repli- ) due to the conformity of the efficient uptake of these metals and to achieve the maximum growth of plant as earlier reported by (Sooknah and Wilkie, 2014;Kumar et al, 2016) while, the concentration above 4 mgL -1 plant growth progressively declined after 30-60 days due to metal induced toxicity in the plant which might be due to the inhibition of chlorophyll processes and biosynthesis (Mukherjee and Kumar, 2005). The reduction in the total chlorophyll content is associated with the higher concentrations of toxic heavy metals treated to the aquatic plant as earlier reported by researchers for water lettuce (De et al, 1985), Cd and Hg treatment by Hydrilla verticillata and Lemna minor (Chatterjee and Nag, 1991), Pb treated by the Salvina natans (Sen and Bhattacharyya, 1993), Pb and Cr treatment by Ipomea aquatica (Alam and Chatterjee, 1994) and Zn, Cu, Cd and Cr treatment of wastewater using water hyacinth and water lettuce (Kouamé et al, 2016).…”

“…Plants being used for the phytoremediation must be capable to tolerate the multiple forms and concentrations of the contaminants present in their environment (Kumar and Chopra, 2016;Kumar et al, 2017a, c). Furthermore, the phytoremediation efficiency is depended upon leaf structure (Hessini et al, 2008) because the leaf traits are often linked to the resource use efficiency of plants (Singh et al, 2012).…”

The historical lakes of India are getting over burdened with the loads of pollution due to the rapid growth of small scale industries, nutrient enrichment and other anthropogenic activities. The high concentrations of metals in the water bodies, their entry into ecological food chain and the resulting health effects are of great concern to the researchers in the areas of ecology. Due to the problems associated with the conventional methods of pollutant removal, phytoremediation method is gaining more attention. The plants to be used in this technique, it must have high capacity of metal absorption, its accumulation and reduction in the time of decontamination in an ecosystem. It is an environment friendly and cost beneficial technique for the removal of toxicants from the environment. This article present over view on status of heavy metal pollution in lake and remediation through plants in Indian context may helpful to researcher not only in India but around the world also. This base line data can help governmental and non-governmental organization for the management of water pollution.

Human health may be at risk when consuming edible but metal-contaminated aquatic plants. This present study was conducted to evaluate the bioavailabilities of manganese (Mn) and cadmium (Cd) in metalscontaminated wild water spinach (WWS), Ipomoea aquatic Forssk. through in vitro human gastrointestinal digestions. Additionally, the health risks from consuming the plant were also assessed. Metals-contaminated hydroponic nutrient solutions were used to grow the plants under greenhouse conditions. The plants were harvested after seven days of metal exposure and their edible shoots (stems and leaves) underwent digestions simulated from the human gastrointestinal tract. A standard reference material (peach leaves, SRM 1547) was used to assess the precision and accuracy of the in vitro digestion studies. Results showed that the metal concentrations in plants increased when the treatment concentration increased; the metals concentrations were higher in the raw (RHS) samples than in the cooked (DHS and CHS) samples. The bioavailabilities of Mn and Cd were found to be higher in the intestinal extractions than in the gastric extractions. The health risk index (HRI) showed that the adults averagely aged 44 in Selangor, Malaysia was at risk if they consumed Mn-T1-contaminated cooked (CHS) WWS and Cd-contaminated raw (RHS) and cooked (CHS) WWS at T1 and T2 because their HRI values were more than 1.
