The co-contamination of naphthalene (NAP) and microcystin-LR (MC-LR) commonly occurs in eutrophic waters. However, the joint effects of NAP and MC-LR on plants in aquatic environments remain unknown. Landoltia punctata is characterized by high starch yields and high biomass in polluted waters and has been proven to be a bioenergy crop and phytoreme...

Plant diversity has important functions in ecosystem productivity overyielding and community stability. Little is known about the mechanism causing productivity overyielding and stability under harsh conditions. This study investigated the photosynthetic response and subcellular distribution of uni- and co-cultured duckweeds (Lemna aequinoctialis a...

Waste management (New York, N.Y.)
Agriculture is estimated to generate about 700 million tons of waste annually in the EU. Novel valorization technologies are developing continuously to recover and recycle valuable compounds and nutrients from waste materials. To close the nutrient loop, low-value agri-food wastes, co-products and by-products (AFWCBs) produced during the valorizati...

The impact of plant-based diets on the digestive physiology of rohu Labeo rohita fingerlings (10.66 ± 0.53 g) was evaluated. A diet with all protein supplied by fishmeal was included as a control (F). Four test diets containing 300 g/kg protein were formulated using the following plant ingredients and fishmeal in a 1:1 blend: almond oil-cake Termin...

The bioluminescent reporter system is a powerful tool for the long-term monitoring of gene expression because of its noninvasive nature. Furthermore, in combination with high-sensitive imaging technology, spatiotemporal analysis on regulation and heterogeneity in gene expression is possible. We developed a single-cell bioluminescent imaging system ...

Cadmium (Cd) affects plants and animal health seriously. Ca2+ signals in plant cells are important for adaptive responses to environmental stresses. Here we showed that 50 μM Cd shock stimulated the Ca2+ signal via modifying the instantaneous Ca2+ flux from influx of 17 pmol·cm-2·s-1 to the efflux of 240 pmol·cm-2·s-1 at 100 μm from rhizoid tip. An...

The Science of the total environment
There is increasing concern about the effects of releasing emerging contaminants (i.e. endocrine-disrupting chemicals, pharmaceuticals, personal-care products and flame retardants) into the environment. Particular attention is being paid to perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) because of their persistence and bioaccumulation, especially in the aquatic ...

Phytoremediation is a technique in which plants are used to treat contaminated media. The objective of this study was to monitor the influence of the parameters pH, phosphate concentration, and nitrate concentration in the process of arsenic absorption by Lemna valdiviana Phil. The response surface methodology was used to analyze the data to subsid...

Cadmium (Cd) is a serious threat to plants health. Though some genes have been reported to get involved in the regulation of tolerance to Cd, the mechanisms underlying this process are not fully understood. Na+/H+ antiporter (NHX1) plays an important role in Na+/H+ trafficking. The salt and cadmium stress tolerance were found to be enhanced by NHX1...

Methanotrophs are the only biological sink of the greenhouse gas methane. To understand the ecological features of methanotrophs in association with plants in the methane emitting environments, we investigated the community composition and methane oxidation of methanotrophs associated with duckweeds in a fresh water lake. Duckweeds collected from L...
