This study investigated the subcellular distribution and chemical forms of cadmium (Cd) in Hydrilla verticillata and the physiological mechanism underlying H. verticillata responses to Cd stress. Hydrilla verticillata was grown in a hydroponic system and was treated with various Cd concentrations
The uranium (U) accumulation potential and ensuing biochemical responses were studied in Hydrilla verticillata (L.f.) Royle upon exposure to U (0, 20 and 100 mg L(-1)). There was a concentration-duration dependent increase in U accumulation with the maximum being 78 mg g(-1) DW at 100 mg L(-1) U
A hydroponic experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of oxalic acid (OA) on arsenic (As) uptake and the physiological responses of Hydrilla verticillata exposed to 3 mg L-1 of As in different forms. Plant As(III) uptake was significantly increased by 200-2000 µg L-1 OA. However, an
Investigations were carried out to evaluate if hydrophytes (viz. Ceratophyllum, Wolffia, and Hydrilla) can be used as markers to assess the level of heavy metal pollution in aquatic bodies. The potential of these hydrophytes for lipid peroxidation and accumulation of proline in response to cadmium
