Sedum alfredii is a Cd/Zn hyperaccumulator native to China, which was collected from a mined area where Mn content in soil was extremely high, together with Zn and Cd content. We investigated the tolerance and accumulation ability of Mn and its possible association with Cd hyperaccumulation in this plant species by using MP-AES, SR-μ-XRF, and RT-PCR. The results showed that the hyperaccumulating ecotype (HE) S. alfredii exhibited high tolerance to Mn and accumulating around 10,000 and 12,000 mg kg−1 Mn in roots and shoots, respectively, without exhibiting toxicity under 5000 mg kg−1 Mn treatment for 4 weeks. Exposure to Cd significantly reduced plant uptake of Mn. In contrast, exogenous Mn application significantly improved root uptake and root-to-shoot translocation of Cd, resulting in the increased Cd accumulation in the shoots of HE S. alfredii. SR-μ-XRF analysis demonstrated that high Mn (20 μM) exposure resulted in higher intensities of Cd localized in both stem vascular bundles and cortex, as well as leaf mesophyll cells, than in those treated with low Mn levels (0.2 μM or 2.0 μM). RT-PCR analysis of several genes possibly involved in Mn/Cd transportation showed that expression of SaNramp3 in roots was significantly reduced under high Mn exposure. These results suggested a significant interaction between Cd and Mn in the HE S. alfredii plants, possibly through their competition for transporters and theoretically provided a strategy to improve the efficiency of Cd extraction from polluted soils by this plant species, after using appropriate nutrient management of Mn.
