Excessive use of nitrogen (N) fertilizer has increased ammonium (NH4+ ) accumulation in many paddy soils to levels that reduce rice vegetative biomass and yield. Based on studies of NH4+ toxicity in rice (Oryza sativa, Nanjing 44) seedlings cultured in agar medium, we found that NH4+ concentrations
Cadmium (Cd) pollution is a worldwide concern due to its biotoxicity. Because Cd and Fe are closely associated during plant photosynthesis, this study aims at investigating the mechanism governing Cd toxicity during photosynthetic primary reaction in rice by adjusting Fe concentration. The results
Cadmium (Cd) contamination in paddy soils poses food security risks and public health concerns. Exploring effective strategies to reduce rice grain Cd is an urgent need. In this study, field plot experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of wollastonite application with or without phosphate
Heavy metal uptake is confined by other elements, namely iron (Fe) and sulfur (S). There are yet no reports on the contribution of S supply to the attenuation of chromium (Cr) uptake when different species of Cr are employed. The bioaccumulation of Cr in two cultivars of rice seedlings subjected to
Xylan is a major hemicellulose in both primary and secondary walls of grass species. It consists of a linear backbone of β-1,4-linked xylosyl residues that are often substituted with monosaccharides and disaccharides. Xylosyl substitutions directly on the xylan backbone have not been reported in
A pot experiment was conducted to clarify the effect of selenium on the uptake and translocation of manganese (Mn), iron (Fe) , phosphorus (P) and selenium (Se) in rice ( Oryza sativa L.). The results showed that addition of Se led to the significant increase of Se concentration in iron plaque on
Arsenic-contaminated rice grain may threaten human health globally. Since H₃AsO₃⁰ is the predominant As species found in paddy pore-waters, and H₄SiO₄⁰ and H₃AsO₃⁰ share an uptake pathway, silica amendments have been proposed to decrease As uptake and consequent As concentrations in grains. Here, we
The accumulation of arsenic (As) in rice grain is a potential threat to human health. Our study investigated the possible mediatory role of selenite fertilization on As uptake and accumulation by rice (Oryza sativa L.) under different water management regimes (aerobic or flooded) in a pot
A field experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of bean stalk (BBC) and rice straw (RBC) biochars on the bioavailability of metal(loid)s in soil and their accumulation into rice plants. Phytoavailability of Cd was most dramatically influenced by biochars addition. Both biochars
The present study used calcium-based magnetic biochar (Ca-MBC), a novel material made through pyrolyzing rice straw impregnated with iron oxide (Fe3O4) and calcium carbonate (CaCO3) under oxygen-limited conditions, to reduce arsenic (As) accumulation in rice plants
Alluvial aquifers of the agrarian state of Punjab of southwestern arid zone used for irrigation of rice crops are rich in arsenic concentration. In the present study, rice (Oryza sativa L.) crops were raised in pots in a greenhouse with a purpose to study whether selenium (Se) application was
Cadmium (Cd) is absorbed readily by rice plants and is transferred to humans when contaminated rice is consumed. Adding selenium (Se) to the plant nutrient solutions reduces the accumulation of Cd in the rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings. However, as the relevant underlying mechanism remains unclear,
Nitric oxide (NO) is a bioactive molecule in plants which mediates a variety of physiological processes and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses including heavy metals. In the present study, the effects of exogenous NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on rice seed germination and seedlings
A factorial study was conducted to evaluate the phytotoxicity of copper oxide nanoparticles (nCuO, 0.1-100 mg/L), arsenic (As, 0 and 10 mg/kg), and their interaction to rice plants ( Oryza sativa japonica 'Koshihikari') during the life cycle. No significant effect was observed on seed germination.
Feeding of [26-13C]- and [27-13C]-24-ethyldesmosterols to cultured cells of Oryza sativa followed by 13C-NMR analysis of the biosynthesized sitosterol revealed that the reduction of 24(25)-double bond proceeds with an anti-addition of hydrogen atoms, thus the E-methyl group of the olefinic precursor
