Abstract
Industrialization and urbanization increased the use of chemicals in agriculture, vehicular emissions, etc., and spoiled all environmental sectors. It causes various problems among living beings at multiple levels and concentrations. Phytoremediation and microbial association are emerging as a potential method for removing heavy metals and other contaminants from soil. The treatment uses plant physiology and metabolism to remove or clean up various soil contaminants efficiently. In recent years, omics and artificial intelligence have been seen as powerful techniques for phytobial remediation. Recently, AI and modeling are used to analyze large data generated by omics technologies. Machine learning algorithms can be used to develop predictive models that can help guide the selection of the most appropriate plant and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria combination that is most effective at remediation. In this review, emphasis is given to the phytoremediation techniques being explored worldwide in soil contamination.

Wang C, Sun X, Chen Y, Zhang Y, Li M. Comparative metabolomic analysis reveals Ni(II) stress response mechanism of Comamonas testosteroni ZG2. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 263:115244.

Abstract
The focus on the toxicity of nickel (Ni(II)) in animal and human cells has increased recently. Ni(II) contamination hazards to animals and humans can be reduced by bioremediation methods. However, one of the limitation of bioremediation bacteria in soil remediation is that they cannot survive in moderate and heavy contamination Ni(II)-contaminated environments. Therefore, the Ni(II) response mechanism of Comamonas testosteroni ZG2 which has soil remediation ability in high-concentration Ni(II) environment must be elucidated. The results demonstrated that the ZG2 strain can survive at 350 mg/L concentration of Ni(II), but the growth of ZG2 was completely inhibited under the concentration of 400 mg/L Ni(II) with significant alterations in the membrane morphology, adhesion behavior, and functional groups and serious membrane damage. Furthermore, the metabolic analysis showed that Ni(II) may affect the adhesion behavior and biofilm formation of the ZG2 strain by affecting the abundance of metabolites in amino acid biosynthesis, aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis, ABC transporter, and cofactor biosynthesis pathways, and inhibiting its growth. This study provides new evidence clarifying the response mechanism of Ni(II) stress in the ZG2 strain, thus playing a significant role in designing the strategies of bioremediation.

The interactions of Cr (VI) concentrations and amendments (biochar and manure) on growth and metal accumulation of two species of Salicornia in contaminated soil. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:201-218.

Abstract
Heavy metals are among the most dangerous contaminants in the environment. Organic components and plant species that can accumulate and stabilize heavy metals in their organs are a good option for soil remediation of these elements. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of manure and biochar on the accumulation of heavy metals by Salicornia species. Salicornia persica Akhani and Salicornia perspolitana Akhani were cultivated outdoor in experimental pots. The effects of experimental treatments, including Cr (VI) concentrations, manure, and biochar on the two studied species, were investigated. The results indicated a significant effect (p < 0.05) of biochar on the accumulation of heavy metals by two species, S. persica and S. perspolitana, so that Cr concentrations in the roots and shoots were 258 and 5.41 mg/kg, respectively. In addition, Cr accumulations under manure treatments in the roots and shoots were 334.34 and 9.79 mg/kg, respectively. The content of photosynthetic pigments in both S. persica and S. perspolitana species under biochar treatment was higher than in control and manure treatments. In general, one can conclude that the accumulation of Cr in S. perspolitana was higher than in S. persica. Applying biochar and manure amendments could stabilize Cr in soil and reduce Cr accumulation in both S. persica and S. perspolitana species.

Potential of Lemna minor and Eichhornia crassipes for the phytoremediation of water contaminated with Nickel (II). ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT 2022; 195:119.

Abstract
Phytoextraction of Nickel (II) in water by two types of aquatic macrophytes (Lemna minor and Eichhornia crassipes) was investigated using synthetic aqueous solutions of NiSO4 at concentrations of 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5 mg/L. The toxic effects of nickel salt in plants were evaluated through the presence of necrosis and chlorosis. The bioconcentration factor, Nickel (II) removal efficiency and kinetics of removal were also calculated. Results of this study show bioconcentration factors higher than 1000, which categorize L. minor and E. crassipes as hyperaccumulators. Besides, L. minor presented a removal percentage higher than 68%, compared to E. crassipes that did not exceed 50% in any of the three concentrations studied. However, E. crassipes showed better resistance to the effects of nickel and obtained a greater removal capacity during the phytoremediation process that lasted for 10 days. In contrast, L. minor suffered necrosis and chlorosis in a concentration-dependent way. Consequently, both macrophytes are sustainable alternatives for nickel removal from contaminated water.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 430:128363. [PMID: 35183050 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.128363] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2021] [Revised: 01/05/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The toxic effect of Nickel (Ni (II)) on humans and animals has been previously addressed. Owing to the important application of psychrotolerant bacteria in Ni (II) damage remediation in contamination sites at low temperatures, the response mechanism of psychrotolerant bacteria to Ni (II) toxicity must be elucidated. Therefore, the effect of Ni (II) toxicity on a psychrotolerant Bacillus cereus D2 was studied, showing a way to alleviate the Ni (II) toxicity in strain D2. The results showed that strain D2 growth was completely inhibited at a concentration of 100 mg/L of Ni (II). The main effects of Ni (II) toxicity on strain D2 were membrane damage and reactive oxygen species-dependent oxidative stress. Additionally, Ni (II) toxicity resulted in dysregulation of the cell cycle in strain D2. Furthermore, metabolomic analysis showed that the biosynthesis of amino acids and ABC transporters were significantly affected, and the relative abundance of seven important amino acids changed in a concentration-dependent manner. Addition of 20 mM or 5 mM amino acids to 100 mg/L Ni (II)-treated strain D2 restored its growth. This study provides insights into the way to alleviate the Ni (II) toxicity in strain D2, thus contributing to the development of bioremediation strategies.

The Salicornia europaea potential for phytoremediation of heavy metals in the soils under different times of wastewater irrigation in northwestern Iran. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 28:47605-47618.

Abstract
The use of wastewater for irrigation usually leads to the buildup of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in soils. The objective of this study was to assess the capacity of Salicornia europaea L. to uptake heavy metal when irrigated with wastewater at the vegetative, flowering, and reproductive stages of S. europaea for 2 and 4 days (in each stage) in the coastal saline area of Lake Urmia. The concentrations of heavy metals were detected in irrigated water, soil, and plant samples, while transfer factor (TF), bioconcentration factor (BCF), and bioaccumulation factor (BAF) were calculated. The results revealed that metal concentrations in the wastewater were above the permissible limits. The wastewater irrigation caused higher shoot biomass despite the high uptake of PTEs. Levels of Fe and Cu in plants were higher when irrigated with wastewater at the reproductive stage as compared to flowering and vegetative stages. The TF of wastewater-irrigated plants was higher at the flowering stage. TF of different metals at the flowering stage were in order of Zn > Pb > Ni > Cd > Cu, while the BCF increased in the order Cd > Cu > Zn > Ni > Pb. The BAF of the investigated PTEs at the flowering stage increased in the order Cd > Pb > Ni > Zn > Cu. In conclusion, higher Pb and Zn in the shoot indicated that the plant exhibited the phytoextraction mechanism, while Salicornia used a phytostabilization mechanism for roots-Cu, Ni, and Cd.

Impact of Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria on Salicornia ramosissima Ecophysiology and Heavy Metal Phytoremediation Capacity in Estuarine Soils. Front Microbiol 2020; 11:553018. [PMID: 33042058 PMCID: PMC7527472 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.553018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2020] [Accepted: 08/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Salicornia ramosissima is a C3 halophyte that grows naturally in South Western Spain salt marshes, under soil salinity and heavy metal pollution (mostly Cu, Zn, As, and Pb) caused by both natural and anthropogenic pressure. However, very few works have reported the phytoremediation potential of S. ramosissima. In this work, we studied a microbe-assisted phytoremediation strategy under greenhouse conditions. We inoculated plant growth promoting (PGP) and heavy metal resistant bacteria in pots with S. ramosissima and natural non-polluted and polluted sediments collected from Spanish estuaries. Then, we analyzed plant ecophysiological and metal phytoaccumulation response. Our data suggested that inoculation in polluted sediments improved S. ramosissima plant growth in terms of relative growth rate (RGR) (32%) and number of new branches (61%). S. ramosissima photosynthetic fitness was affected by heavy metal presence in soil, but bacteria inoculation improved the photochemical apparatus integrity and functionality, as reflected by increments in net photosynthetic rate (21%), functionality of PSII (Fm and Fv/Fm) and electron transport rate, according to OJIP derived parameters. Beneficial effect of bacteria in polluted sediments was also observed by augmentation of intrinsic water use efficiency (28%) and slightly water content (2%) in inoculated S. ramosissima. Finally, our results demonstrated that S. ramosissima was able to accumulate great concentrations of heavy metals, mostly at root level, up to 200 mg Kg–1 arsenic, 0.50 mg Kg–1 cadmium, 400 mg Kg–1 copper, 25 mg Kg–1 nickel, 300 mg Kg–1 lead, and 300 mg Kg–1 zinc. Bioaugmentation incremented S. ramosissima heavy metal phytoremediation potential due to plant biomass increment, which enabled a greater accumulation capacity. Thus, our results suggest the potential use of heavy metal resistant PGPB to ameliorate the capacity of S. ramosissima as candidate for phytoremediation of salty polluted ecosystems.
