Antioxidant responses of hyper-accumulator and sensitive fern species to arsenic.
Plant species capable of hyper-accumulating heavy metals are of considerable interest for phytoremediation, and differ in their ability to accumulate metals from the environment. This work aims to examine (i) arsenic accumulation in three fern species [Chinese brake fern (Pteris vittata L.), slender brake fern (Pteris ensiformis Burm. f.), and Boston fern (Nephrolepis exaltata L.)], which were ...
متن کاملArsenic Phytoextraction and Hyperaccumulation by Fern Species
Arsenic (As) is an ubiquitous trace metalloid found in all environmental media. Its presence at elevated concentrations in soils derives from both anthropogenic and natural inputs. Arsenic is a toxic and carcinogenic element, which has caused severe environmental and health problem worldwide. Technologies currently available for the remediation of arsenic-contaminated sites are expensive, envir...
متن کاملXAS speciation of arsenic in a hyper-accumulating fern.
The coordination environment and the redox speciation of arsenic in a newly discovered arsenic hyper-accumulating fern (Pteris vittata L) were investigated by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. This method allowed us to probe arsenic directly, i.e., with minimal sample preparation. The results indicate that arsenic is predominantly accumulated as As(III) in the leaves. XANES and EXAFS results show ...
متن کاملThe effect of arsenic and sodium nitroprusside on the physiological responses and antioxidant enzymes activity of Isatis cappadocica
Arsenic (As) stress, through the creation of oxidative stress, can cause phytotoxicity (e.g. The decrease of growth and chlorophyll content) in plants. Nitric oxide (NO), by promotion of the antioxidant system, plays an important role in reducing heavy metal-induced oxidative stress. In this study, the role of exogenously applied sodium nitroprusside (SNP; a NO donor) on physiological responses...
متن کاملEvaluation of physiological and molecular responses of two rice cultivars to arsenic toxicity
Arsenic (As) toxicity can be a hazardous threat to sustainable agriculture and human health. In order to investigate the effect of As (0, 25 and 50 µM) on growth, physiological traits and expression of As and Fe transporters in Tarom hashemi and Fajr rice cultivars, a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design was conducted in 2020 in greenhouse conditions at Ayatollah Amoli B...
