Abstract

Aims

Celosia argentea (Amaranthaceae) can accumulate both Cd and Mn. This study reveals the interactive effect and underlying mechanism of Cd and Mn during their uptake in this species.

Methods

Plants were grown in hydroponic and soil media with different Cd and Mn treatments. The concentrations of Cd and Mn in plants and soil solutions were determined by ICP-MS. The real-time Cd2+ flux values into roots were measured with non-invasive micro-test technology.

Results

Manganese supply significantly decreased Cd bioaccumulation in C. argentea in hydroponic experiments. The mean net Cd2+ flux rates into roots decreased by 10.5% and 56.9% with the addition of 0.01 and 0.5 mM Mn2+, respectively. The Mn supply (1 mM) increased the Michaelis constant by 1.8-fold but did not significantly change the maximum uptake velocity of Cd. In soil culture experiments, Mn application significantly increased Cd bioaccumulation and Cd concentrations in soil solutions.

Conclusions

The interactions of Cd and Mn in C. argentea differ between hydroponic and soil cultures. Mn inhibits Cd uptake in hydroponic experiments via competition in common transport systems. The enhancement effect of Mn on Cd uptake in soil systems is attributed to an increase of Cd in soil solutions by competitive adsorption.
