Heavy metals in soil, water and air is a great concern. Toxic heavy metals ultimately affect plant, Animals, and through food chain directly influence human life. In present study, the effect of heavy metals (Cu, Zn), Nfertilizers and EDTA on growth and biomass of cannibus sativa plant was evaluated. The Cu and Zn phytoextraction potential of Cannabis sativa plant under various treatments of N-...

The absorption characteristics of Cd(2+) by 10- to 12-day-old soybean plants (Glycine max cv Williams) were investigated with respect to influence of Cd concentration on adsorption to root surfaces, root absorption, transport kinetics and interaction with the nutrient cations Cu(2+), Fe(2+), Mn(2+), and Zn(2+). The fraction of nonexchangeable Cd bound to roots remained relatively constant at 20...

in order to investigate the effects of applying three and five continuous periods of municipal solid waste (msw) with and without npk chemical fertilizer on the amount of micronutrient uptake by different parts of wheat, a pot experiment was conducted in split plot based on randomized complete block design with four replications in 2009. the main plot was a six-fertilizers level including contr...

an experiment was conducted to optimize consumption of zinc and evaluate of zinc effects on quantitative and qualitative traits of winter wheat under saline soil condition. it was done by three replications in randomized complete block design. the experiment had four treatments as control without zn, 40 kg.ha-1 zn as znso4, 80 kg.ha-1 zn as znso4 in soil and 120 kg.ha-1 zn as znso4 in soil. ele...

Phaseolus vulgaris plants, 3, 8, 11, and 13 days old, were inoculated with 0, 2,000, 4,000, or 8,000 second-stage Meloidogyne incognita larvae and maintained under controlled conditions. The photosynthetic rate and the shoot and root concentration of K, Ca, Mn, Fe, Cu, and Zn were determined by destructive assay at 1-27-day intervals and by nondestructive assay of leaves, stems, and roots at 27...
