چکیده

soil and sediments of the estuaries and wetlands in northwest of persian gulf are recently polluted with different heavy metals because of municipal and industrial wastewaters. therefore an urgent soil cleaning up and remediation program is vital in this region. consequently, this study was initiated to screen two plant species (festuca arundinacea and cynodon dactylon) for hyperaccumulation of nickel (ni) and lead (pb) as one of the candidate methods for cleaning-up soil and sediments of shadegan wetland. soil samples (0-30 cm) were collected from two sites in the wetland. the soil samples were treated with solutions of ni and pb separately which resulted into content of 50 and 100 mg kg-1 of metals in each soil. thereafter, the plants were sown in the soils under greenhouse conditions and harvested after 10 weeks. ni and pb contents were measured in root and shoot of plants. results showed that accumulation of ni and pb in tall fescue roots were significantly (p

Lead Accumulation by Tall Fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) Grown on a Lead-Contaminated Soil

Phytoextraction is gaining acceptance as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly phytoremediation strategy for reducing toxic metal levels from contaminated soils. Cognizant of the potential of this phytoremediation technique as an alternative to expensive engineering-based remediation technologies, experiments were conducted to evaluate the suitability of some plants as phytoextraction s...

Bacterial community evaluation during establishment of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) in soil contaminated with pyrene.

A greenhouse study was conducted to monitor microbial community dynamics related to contaminant concentration and plant growth during the phytoremediation of pyrene. Soil microbial communities in both bulk and rhizosphere soils were assessed using a polymerase chain reaction--denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE). However, no correlation between pyrene concentration and bacterial c...

Phytoremediation of soils polluted by heavy metals using Vetiver grass and Tall Fescue

Phytoremediation is a biological method to improve soils contaminated with heavy metals. The objective of the present research was to study the capability of Vetiver grass and Tall Fescue in refining and reducing pollution of Cd, Cu and Zn from contaminated soils. The research was implemented in greenhouse during two separate tests (Vetiver grass and Tall Fescue) in a completely randomized desi...

Effect of humic acid and mulches on characteristics of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.)

Application[Editor 321]  of biotic growth regulators (e.g. humic components) and appropriate mulches is recommended to improve turfgrass quality especially in arid andsemi-arid climate zones. However, limited number of studies have investigated their effect on lawn establishment. To investigate the effect of humic acid (HA) and selected mulches on characteristics of Festuca arundinacea in its p...

Effect of humic acid and mulches on some characteristics of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.)

Application of biotic growth regulators (e.g. humic components) and appropriate mulches is recommended to improve turfgrass quality. However, limited research has investigated their effect on lawn establishment. To investigate the effect of humic acid and selected mulches on characteristics of Festuca arundinacea in its planting stage, a factorial experiment based on a completely rando...
