To explore the effects of some chemical amendments on the plant growth and phytoextraction efficiencies of cadmium (Cd)/zinc (Zn) hyper accumulator Sedum plumbizincicola in acid soils with high aluminum (Al) toxicity, a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted. Different kinds and dosages of
Thirteen species of wild edible plants belonging to 11 botanical families consumed in the traditional Mediterranean diet were evaluated. Sanguisorba minor, Quercus ballota and Sedum sediforme showed the highest hydrophilic total antioxidant activity (H-TAA) and total phenols. Asparagus acutifolius,
The presence of elevated concentrations of heavy metals limits the usage of sewage sludge as a fertilizer and soil amendment. Experiments were carried out to examine the extent to which seven plant species phytoextracted Zn and Cu from dewatered sludge. The hyperaccumulators Thlaspi caerulescens and
