ABSTRACT
Many experiments showed that exogenous ligands could enhance cadmium (Cd) phytoextraction efficiency in soils. Previous studies suggested that the dissociation and the apoplastic uptake of Cd complex could not fully explain the increase of root Cd uptake. Two hypotheses are evaluated to explain enhanced Cd uptake in the presence of ligand i) enhanced apoplastic uptake of complex due to reduced apoplastic resistance and ii) complex internalization by membrane transporters. RESULTS:
show that the ligand affinity for Cd is a key characteristic determining the potential mechanism for enhanced Cd uptake. When low molecular weight organic acids are applied, the complex dissociation could generally be fast (> 10-3.3 s-1) and result in the increased Cd uptake. When hydrophilic aminopolycarboxylic acids (APCAs) are applied in experiments without water or temperature stresses to the plant, the root water uptake flux could very likely be high (> 10-7.8 dm s-1), and the strong apoplastic complex uptake could enhance the root Cd uptake. When lipophilic APCAs are applied, the strong internalization of the complex by membrane transporters could result in the increased Cd uptake if the maximum internalization rate is high (> 10-12 mol dm-2 s-1). However, the complex internalization by membrane transporters must be experimentally confirmed.Palabras clave
