Evaluating phytoremediation potential of various weeds in cadmium-contaminated soil.

Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic and prevalent heavy metal environmental contaminant. As weeds are more resistant to abiotic stress, certain weed species are hypothesized to possess strong potential for phytoremediation. Thus, a pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the phytoremediation potential of wild oat, l...

Mycorrhiza-induced cadmium tolerance in squash: roles of antioxidant defense, secondary metabolites, and restricted metal uptake and translocation

Overall, AMF effectively mitigated Cd-induced phytotoxicity in squash plants through modulation of antioxidant defense mechanisms, osmolyte accumulation, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, and limitation of Cd translocation.

Root sequestration and antioxidant defense underpin cadmium tolerance in Arundo donax under contrasting Cd concentrations.

Cadmium (Cd) contamination poses a persistent threat to plant growth and environmental safety, yet plant responses to contrasting Cd exposure remain insufficiently understood. Here, Arundo donax seedlings were hydroponically exposed to low (0.1 mM) and high (1.0 mM) Cd stress. Physiological responses were evaluated aft...

Foliar-Applied LW-CNs Alleviate Cadmium Toxicity in Soybean by Regulating Cd Accumulation, Photosynthesis and Nitrogen Metabolism

Cadmium (Cd) pollution seriously threatens food safety. Plant-derived nanomaterials, due to their environmental friendliness, have emerged as a promising approach for crop stress tolerance regulation; however, their mechanisms under Cd stress remain unclear. In this study, licorice–wolfberry-derived nanocomposites (LW-...

Cadmium Exposure Modulates Quality of the Medicinal Plant Dendrobium officinale via Regulation of Gene Expression, Antioxidant Systems, Bioactive Compound Accumulation, and Rhizosphere Microbial Community

With increasing industrialization, heavy metal contamination poses a growing threat to ecosystem stability and human health. Cadmium (Cd) is taken up by medicinal plants through the soil–plant continuum, altering rhizosphere microbial communities and thereby affecting plant metabolism and bioactive compound accumulatio...

Short-Term Cadmium and Lead Exposure in Common Buckwheat: Metal Accumulation, Physiological Responses, and Compositional Changes

Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) contamination may alter common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench cv. ‘Korona’) physiology and composition. The objective was to determine whether common buckwheat maintains physiological performance under controlled Cd and Pb exposure while assessing metal transfer to harvested achenes....
