The accumulation and effect of rare earth element neodymium on the root of rice seedlings

Biogeochemical cycles of nutrients, rare earth elements (REEs) and Al in soil-plant system in ion-adsorption REE mine tailings remediated with amendment and ramie (Boehmeria nivea L.)

“…A recent study found that the rice root morphological features (e.g. the number of lateral root of adventitious roots) were sensitive to high concentration of REE (Shi et al 2021). The difference of age of ramie could also contribute to the differences in root morphology observed between the zones A and B.…”

Synergistic effects of a functional bacterial consortium on enhancing phenanthrene biodegradation and counteracting rare earth biotoxicity in liquid and slurry systems

“…2018; Shi et al . 2021). Therefore, whether RE elements affect the microbial degradation of PAHs in the environment has become a topic of interest.…”

“…However, research on the effect of RE metals, as emerging pollutants in the environment, on the bioremediation of PAHs‐contaminated sites is scant (Shi et al . 2021).…”

“…The increase in RE elements in farmland and the surrounding areas of RE mines as a result of industrial and agricultural activities has gained increasing attention due to the detrimental effects of RE elements on living organisms (Khan et al 2017). The bioaccessibility and health risk of RE elements in plants, animals and humans have been widely discussed (Pagano et al 2015;Liu et al 2018;Shi et al 2021). Therefore, whether RE elements affect the microbial degradation of PAHs in the environment has become a topic of interest.…”

“…Biosorption, which utilizes the ability to live biomass to accumulate metals, has been considered a highly competitive, effective, and economically attractive treatment method because it can maintain viable biomass during the removal of heavy metals (Tunali et al 2006). However, research on the effect of RE metals, as emerging pollutants in the environment, on the bioremediation of PAHs-contaminated sites is scant (Shi et al 2021).…”
