ABSTRACT
Differences in growth conditions in the glasshouse and in the field may affect the consistency of phytoextraction results. Two crops of the hyperaccumulator Sedum plumbizincicola were grown in six contrasting soils in pot experiments under three different sets of growth conditions (glasshouse, polytunnel and field) to compare the phytoextraction of cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn). The total shoot biomass of two crops in the glasshouse was significantly smaller than in the polytunnel or field. However, in general there were no significant differences in total shoot metal uptake of two crops per pot among three sets of growth conditions. And greater decreases in soil metal than plant uptake in the polytunnel and field in an acid soil indicate high leaching losses of soil metals in the polytunnel and field, and this was confirmed by analysis of metal concentrations in soil profiles. This brings into question on the validity of estimating the practical applicability of phytoextraction based only on plant metal uptake in glasshouse conditions. It is advisable to examine leaching losses in acid soils in the field when estimating the duration of phytoextraction.
