Abstract In today's fast-paced society, environmental breakdown is an ecumenical concern. This dilemma tangled up with the unaccountable anthropogenic activities that are causing significant public health issues. Because of rapid pace development, urban soil and water pollution progressively acting as a sink for variety contaminants, including heavy metals, pesticides, petroleum waste, radioact...

Lead contamination is among the most significant threats to environment. The phytoextraction approach uses plants that can tolerate and accumulate metals in their tissues. Lately, biofuel have been recommended be suitable for remediation implementation of potentially toxic elements (PTEs)-polluted soil. This research assessed Pb phytoremediation potential three Sorghum bicolor [red cultivar (S1...

Copper is a frequently used heavy metal worldwide and known to be an essential micronutrient for most living organisms including plants. However, excessive levels of copper in soil may adversely affect plant growth survival. The continuing introduction soil, e.g., through utilization agrochemicals has raised serious environmental concerns throughout the world. A variety plants have capability e...

Abstract Phytomanagement techniques using native species allow the recovery of contaminated soils at low cost and circumvent ecological risks associated with use non-native species. In this context, a paradigmatic brownfield megasite highly by As Pb was sampled in order to analyze soil–plant interactions identify plant phytoremediation potential. A survey first carried out 20-ha area obtain an ...

This study investigates the impact of wastewater irrigation on soil–plant–water system at vegetative, flowering, and reproductive stages Phragmites australis for two four days (in each stage) in coastal saline area Urmia Lake. The concentrations potentially toxic elements were detected irrigated water, soil, plant (aboveground belowground) tissues, transfer factor bioaccumulation calculated. sh...

Ranunculus sceleratus L. (Ranunculaceae) is an invasive alien widespread species commonly distributed in canals and drains banks. In Egypt, this plant exhibits extensive growth with occasional pure populations the Nile Delta region. This study aimed to address drivers for R. abundance, phytochemical composition, phytoremediation efficiency. The average abundance of within 60 stands 25 m2 each w...

With the purpose of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) isolation, several authors have sampled different wetlands in northern half Argentina. However, to date, we do not know existence microbiological studies conducted Patagonian salt marshes, and concretely, concerning isolation PGPR. The present work was heavy metal polluted San Antonio marsh, two areas with grade pollution. In those...

Arsenic contamination in soils occurs widely in a range of ecosystems resulting from geological origins and anthropogenic activities. On average, arsenic concentration ranges from 5 to 10 mg kg−1 in uncontaminated soils and above 10 mg kg−1 in contaminated soils (Hossain, 2006). Increased buildup of arsenic in irrigated soils has been widely recognized in South and South-east Asia (Brammer and ...
