چکیده

In this study, bioaccumulation of lead in wildly growing edible mushroom and its underlying soil near the industrial drainage and heavy traffic area was investigated during monsoon. These accumulations were compared with the cultivated and remote residential area. Commercial samples were also collected during monsoon. Four different varieties of mushroom Button mushroom (Agaricusbisporus), Oyster mushroom (Pleurotussajor-caju), Milky mushroom (Calocybeindica)and Shiitake (Lentinusedodes) along with and its top soil samples were collected and the levels of Pb was analyzed using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. From the two way ANOVA, it was found there was significant variation in Lead concentrations at different locations and from correlation analysis Lead concentration in soil and mushroom samples were positively correlated.

Bioaccumulation of Nickel and Lead by Bermuda Grass (Cynodon dactylon) and Tall Fescue (Festuca arundinacea) from Two Contaminated Soils

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...

Mycoremediation of Dichlorvos Pesticide Contaminated Soil by Pleurotus pulmonarius (Fries) Quelet

The extensive use of pesticides leads to accumulation of a huge amount of residues in the environment. As such, the present study investigates the potentiality of Pleurotus pulmonarius to bioremediate dichlorvos pesticides (2,2-dichlorovinyldimethylphosphate) in contaminated soil. DDVP-polluted soils have been contaminated in five concentrations (5% v/w, 10% v/w, 15% v/w, 20% v/w, and 25% v/w),...

Greenhouse experiment was conducted for four months using Leucaena leucocephala and Pleurotus tuber-regium to determine their bioremediation potentials. Leucaena leucocephala, Pleurotus tuber-regium and Leucaena leucocephala combined with Pleurotus tuber-regium were tested for their ability to improve nutrient (N, P, K, total organic carbon) and reduce heavy metals (Zn, Ni, Pb, Cu) of soil poll...
