This study investigated the phytoremediation potential of six indigenous plants widely growing on mine slag heaps in Gejiu, Yunnan. Bothriochloa ischcemum (Linn.) Keng and Equisetum ramosissimum Desf. were found to own a remarkable capacity to phytoaccumulate Cr. Bothriochloa ischaemum and Agave americana Linn. showed a great capacity to phytostabilize Pb, Zn Cu and Sn. Gymnema sylvestre (Retz.) Schult demonstrated the phytotransfer capacity for Pb, Cu and Sn, and Euphorbia cyathophora Murr. demonstrated the high phytotranslocate capacity for Cd and Sn. These findings will be useful to select suitable indigenous plants for the phytoremediation of local soils contaminated by mining activities.
