The evaluation of growth and phytoextraction potential of Miscanthus x giganteus and Sida hermaphrodita on soil contaminated simultaneously with Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn
Open accessAbstract
One of the cheapest, environmentally friendly methods for cleaning an environment polluted by heavy metals is phytoextraction. It builds on the uptake of pollutants from the soil by the plants, which are able to grow under conditions of high concentrations of toxic metals. The aim of this work was to assess the possibility of growing and phytoextraction potential of Miscanthus x giganteus and Sida hermaphrodita cultivated on two different soils contaminated with five heavy metals simultaneously: Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn. A 3-year microplot experiment with two perennial energy crops, M. x giganteus and S. hermaphrodita, was conducted in the experimental station of IUNG-PIB in Poland (5° 25' N, 21° 58 'E), in the years of 2008-2010. Miscanthus was found more tolerant to concomitant soil contamination with heavy metals and produced almost double biomass than Sida in all three tested years, independent of soil type. Miscanthus collected greater amount of heavy metals (except for cadmium) in the biomass than Sida. Both energy crops absorb high levels of zinc, lower levels of lead, copper, and nickel, and absorbed cadmium at least, generally more metals were taken from the sandy soil, where plants also yielded better. Photosynthesis net rate of Miscanthus was on average 40% higher compared to Sida. Obtained results indicate that M. x giganteus and S. hermaphrodita can successfully be grown on moderately contaminated soil with heavy metals.

In the contaminated soils, miscanthus root Cd, Pb and Zn concentrations were more elevated than in the rhizomes, stems and leaves.
“In the contaminated soils, the miscanthus root Cd, Pb and Zn concentrations were more elevated than in the rhizomes, stems and leaves, in conformity with Nsanganwimana et al. (2015), Pidlisnyuk et al. (2016) and Kocoń and Jurga (2017) field experiments observations.”

The Heavy metal uptake section suggests that Pb may be deposited in roots, which lends limited support to the Pb comparison. It does not report Miscanthus root concentrations relative to rhizomes, stems, and leaves for Cd, Pb, and Zn; the Concentrations of Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn in plant biomass section does not establish those organ-by-organ comparisons (page unavailable). (LLM, conf=0.76)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMiscanthus limits trace element root uptake and reduces their transfer to aboveground organs.
“Moreover, the BCFs for all organs, apart from Cd in roots, were lower than 1 in contaminated soils suggesting that miscanthus limits TE root uptake and reduces their transfer to aboveground organs (Pavel et al., 2014; Korzeniowska and Stanislawska-Glubiak, 2015; Kocoń and Jurga, 2017).”

Table 6 and the Heavy metal uptake section report bioaccumulation factors below 1 for Miscanthus aboveground biomass, supporting limited accumulation there. But the Chemical analyses section defines those factors using aboveground organs and soil, not roots; the paper does not establish that Miscanthus limits root uptake or reduces transfer from roots to aboveground organs. Page numbers were not available in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.88)

Table 6 (indexed under Conclusions; page unavailable) reports bioaccumulation factors below 1 for Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn in Miscanthus biomass. Chemical analyses defines those factors using aboveground organs, not individual organs. The paper therefore supports the below-1 finding for measured aboveground biomass, but not the claim about all organs or the exception for Cd in roots. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
