“…The variability in productivity was associated with fruit weight. Molasa & Baran (2004) observed a phytotoxic effect of Ni delivered in a soluble source, suggesting higher bioavailability in this form. The lack of changes in fruit acidity and soluble solids content suggests that fruit quality was not affected by the use of OC and that those parameters are less susceptible than productivity.…”

A B S T R A C TThe use of organic residues can improve soil chemical and physical conditions and plant growth. However, these residues often contain heavy metals that can interfere with growth. Here, a pot experiment was performed to compare the effects of organic compound (OC) containing a high nickel (Ni) load with those of a mineral Ni source (NiCl 2 , a soluble salt) on the production, quality and nutritional status of strawberry and on soil chemistry. Six dosages of Ni (0, 9, 18, 36, ) were added to the soil using both OC and NiCl 2 . The use of high-Ni OC resulted in increased productivity and fruit weight, whereas the soluble NiCl 2 salt caused reduction in fruit weight. Application of NiCl 2 at concentrations >18 mg kg -1 also caused internerval chlorosis on leaves, suggesting that strawberry is highly sensitive to Ni. The mineral Ni source was almost 15-fold more effective than the organic source at increasing leaf Ni content. Application of OC caused an increase of organic matter, Ca, sum of bases, cation exchange capacity, base saturation, Zn, Mn, and Cu, but reduced the levels of Mg in soil.Composto orgânico com altos níveis de Ni: Efeitos no solo e na cultura de morango R E S U M O O uso de resíduos orgânicos pode promover não apenas melhorias nas condições químicas e físicas do solo e da planta mas também a entrada de metais pesados no ciclo biológico. Objetivando avaliar o efeito de um composto orgânico (CO) com altos teores de níquel (Ni) e do cloreto de Ni na produção, qualidade, nutrição do morango e nos aspectos químicos do solo, conduziu-se um experimento em vasos. Aplicaram-se seis doses de Ni 0, 9, 18, 36, 72 e 144 mg Ni kg -1 de solo por meio de um CO e um sal solúvel. Avaliaram-se os efeitos na produtividade, qualidade de frutos e composição química (macro e micronutrientes) em tecido da planta tal como efeitos no solo. A aplicação de CO com altos teores de Ni proporcionou aumentos na produção e massa de frutos, porém o uso isolado exerceu decréscimos na massa dos frutos; já na fonte mineral e nas maiores doses provocou clorose internerval nas folhas. A cultura do morango mostrou alta sensibilidade nas maiores concentrações de Ni; enfim, o CO promoveu incrementos de MO, Ca, soma de bases, CTC, saturação de base, Zn, Mn e Fe mas reduziu os teores de Mg.

“…Only low levels of nickel are known to be beneficial (BrowN et al 1987). High concentrations of this element in growing medium may exert adverse effects on plants (molas, BaraN 2004). Gad et al (2007) observed that the tomato fruit quality improved with an increasing Ni level (30 mg kg -1 soil).…”

Nickel in the environment

The importance of nickel (Ni) in the environment is an issue that is gaining broader recognition. While nickel is an element essential for plants, it is also a heavy metal. Nickel is a component of nine metalloenzymes, including urease, which participates in urea hydrolysis. It also helps some plants to protect themselves against pathogens and herbivorous insects. There are many sources of Ni in the environment, which can be a problem because at higher concentrations this element is toxic to plants and other living organisms. Therefore, standards have been defined for the Ni content in air, water, soil and plants. Its content is monitored in the air. More and more frequently, attention is paid to this element as an allergen in humans. In the world, attempts have been made to phytoextract nickel from contaminated soils using nickelphilous plants, the so-called hyperaccumulators, and even to recover the metal from these plants by so-called phytomining. On the other hand, nickel-containing fertilizers are marketed and used in cases of nickel deficiency in plants. In industry, this element is primarily used for the production of steel and alloys. The most recent application of nickel is related to graphene, which was invented 10 years ago. Although nickel contamination does not occur in Poland, we cannot rule out this risk in the future. Thus, it is important to monitor the fate of nickel in the environment.

“…Data showed that spinach was more sensitive to Ni than maize (Figure 1). Previously several investigators found that Ni markedly decreased plant fresh weight (El-Enany et al, 2000;Molas & Baran, 2004;Kopittke et al, 2007;Mishra & Gopal, 2008). It was postulated that the decrease in biomass was a consequence of change in the plant water status accompanied by disturbances in biological and physiological processes such as mitotic activity, photosynthesis, respiration, and mineral nutrition.…”

“…High concentrations of this element in growing medium may exert adverse effects on plants (Molas & Baran, 2004;Kopittke et al, 2007;Mishra & Gopal, 2008). It is well known that Ni at sufficiently high concentrations is strongly phytotoxic and inhibits growth.…”

This study investigated the effectiveness of excessive calcium (Ca) and iron (Fe) supplement nutrition in spinach Markiza F(1) cv. and sweet corn Zlota Karlowa cv. to alleviate nickel (Ni)-induced phytotoxicity. The following doses of the pollutant Ni were introduced: 0 (control), 40, or 60 mg Ni/kg growth medium. Two levels of calcium (Ca), 270 (basic) and 400 mg/kg (intensive), as well as two levels of iron (Fe), 10 (basic) and 20 mg/kg (intensive), respectively, were used. Intensive nutrition supplementation of Ni-stressed test plants species with Ca or Fe was beneficial as manifested by significantly increased maize shoots and roots biomass, lowered content of Ni in spinach and maize in above-ground parts, and decreased concentration of the pollutant in roots of intensive Ca-supplied maize plants grown in the environment containing 60 mg Ni/kg. Moreover there was significantly elevated Fe content in highly fertilized with iron spinach plants grown in the presence of 60 mg Ni/kg and in shoots of Ni-treated maize plants intensively supplied with Ca or Fe. Generally, high content of Ca or Fe in the growth medium significantly raised the content of free and bound Ca in shoots of Ni-stressed spinach plants. The same phenomenon was found in roots, but only in the presence of 60 mg Ni. Intensive nutrition supplementation of Ni-treated maize plants with Fe or Ca generally did not change the concentration of free Ca in plant organs, but elevated bound Ca levels in roots was observed. Increased bound Ca content was also found in leaves of maize plants intensive supplied with Ca. Thus, intensive Ca or Fe nutrition presents a promising potential for use in the conditions of Ni contamination by increasing plant growth, reducing Ni translocation from roots to shoots and raising the nutritive value of above-ground parts of spinach and maize plants.
