Metal tolerance and phytoremoval ability in Amaranthus paniculatus L. grown in nickel-spiked nutrient solution
To evaluate a possible utilization in the phytoremediation of metal contaminated substrates, Amaranthus paniculatus L. plants were grown for one week in Ni-spiked growth solutions at 0, 25, 50, 100, 150 μM NiCl2 in hydroponics under controlled climate conditions. Results showed a high tolerance to N...
