Mycorrhizal colonization rate, dry weight, As and P uptake by plants, concentrations of water-extractable As and As fractions were determined. A low mycorrhizal colonization rate (〈 25%) was detected. Our research indicated that AM fungi isolated from polluted soils were no more effective than those from unpolluted soils when grown in symbiosis with tobacco. No significant differences were observed in roots and stalks dry weights among all treatments. Leaves and total plant dry weights were much higher in Glomus versiforme treatment than that in control treatment. As contents in roots and stalks from mycorrhizal treatments were much lower than that from control treatment. Total plant As content exhibited the same trend. P concentrations in tobacco were not affected by colonization, nor were stalks, leaves and total plant P contents. Roots P contents were remarkably lower in HN treatments than in other treatments. Meanwhile, decreased soil pH and lower water-extractable As concentrations and higher levels of As fraction bound to well-crystallized hydrous oxides of Fe and AI were found in mycorrhizal treatments than in controls. The protective effect of mycorrhiza against plant As uptake may be associated with changes in As solubility mediated by changing soil pH. These results indicated that under As stress, proper mechanisms employed by AM fungi can protect tobacco against As uptake. Results confirmed that AM fungi can play an important role in food quality and safety.展开更多

In China, large area of farmland and the site soil were contaminated by As, which means that suitable remedying methods were urgently needed. Phytoremediation, as one of environment-friendly soil remediation techniques developed in recent years, shows a bright future for the remediation of As contaminated soils. However, phytoremediation efficiency needs to be enhanced further because of low concentration of bio- available As in the soils. A triangle flask culture experiment was carried out to study the effects of functional species, isolated from As-polluted soils, that could improve As mobility from the soil. These species included two bacilli, B 1 and B2 (Breviba- cillus) and two fungi, F1 (Trichoderma), F2 (Fusarium). They could transform the concentration of As fractionation in the soil sterilized by the method of 6~Co-T ray. Through the experiment, the concentrations of non-specifically-sorbed and specifical- ly-sorbed As fractionation, and pH value of culture solution with inoculated treatment were higher than that with the control. Especially, the concentration of non-specifically-sorbed As fractionation in the treatment-inoculated species was 2 to 6 times higher than that of non-inoculation treatment. Moreover, two bacilli and two fungi could produce IAA, which was conducive to the plant survival when they were jointly used in remedying the As-contaminated soil.展开更多
