Abstract
- Enrichment of the hyperaccumulator bank is important for phytoremediation, and studying new hyperaccumulators has become a research hotspot. In this study, cadmium (Cd), the main representative factor of heavy-metal-polluted water, was the research object, and the Cd bioenrichment ability and tolerance of Myriophyllum aquaticum were studied for the first time. The experiment was conducted for 28 days by establishing experimental groups with different Cd concentrations (0, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 160 mg/L). The results show that M. aquaticum is a new Cd hyperaccumulator. There was no notable damage in the 40 mg/L Cd treatment group, and the Cd enrichment ability of M. aquaticum reached 17,970 ± 1020.01 mg/kg, while the bioconcentration factor (BCF) reached 449.25. At the same time, the antioxidant system (superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD)) and proline (Pro) levels of M. aquaticum maintained normal plant physiology, but there were physiological anomalies in M. aquaticum at high concentrations and under long-term treatment. The results show that M. aquaticum has a high Cd bioenrichment ability and tolerance in water and can be used for phytoremediation of river water polluted by Cd.
