RESUMO
Two Gram-staining-negative, facultative anaerobic, rod-shaped and phosphate-solubilizing strains designated SG2303T and SG2305, were isolated from paddy soil in China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16 S rRNA gene sequences indicated that SG2303T and SG2305 represented a member of the genus Crenobacter within the family Neisseriaceae of the phylum Pseudomonadota. Strain SG2303T displayed higher 16 S rRNA gene sequence similarities with members of the genus Crenobacter ranging from 93.5 to 94.0%. Strains C. luteus YIM 78141T and C. cavernae K1W11S-77T were closest related to the isolated strains and were considered as type strains. Growth of strain SG2303T occurred at 10-55 °C (optimum 37 °C), pH 5.0-9.0 (optimum pH 6.0-7.0) and 0-1% (w/v) NaCl (optimum 0%). The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strain SG2303T and its closely related taxa were 76.1-78.2% and 20.5-22.1%, respectively. The genomic DNA G + C content was 62.2%. The quinone of strain SG2303T was Q-8. The major fatty acids (> 10%) of strain SG2303T were C16:0 (30.6%), summed feature 3 (C16:1ω7c and/or C16:1ω6c) (26.0%) and C12:0 3OH (12.1%). The polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol (PG), diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phospholipids (PL), glycolipid (GL) and unidentified lipids (UL). Based on the results of the phylogenetic, physiological, biochemical, and morphological analysis, strain SG2303T is recognized as a novel species of the genus Crenobacter, for which the name Crenobacter oryzisoli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SG2303T (= GDMCC 1.3970T = JCM 36468T). In addition, SG2303T was also able of phosphorus solubilization and promoting the growth of rice seeds. Strain SG2303T exhibited a relatively high dissolvable phosphorus content of 2.52 µg·mL- 1.

An aerobic, Gram-stain-negative and short rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated M6-31T, was isolated from rice paddy soil sampled in Miryang, Republic of Korea. Growth was observed at 4-35â°C (optimum, 28â°C), pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0-8.0) and in the presence of 0-4â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0â% w/v). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences grouped strain M6-31T with Sphingobacterium bambusae IBFC2009T, Sphingobacterium griseoflavum SCU-B140T and Sphingobacterium solani MLS-26-JM13-11T in the same clade, with the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities ranging from 95.8 to 96.6â%. A genome-based phylogenetic tree reconstructed by using all publicly available Sphingobacterium genomes placed strain M6-31T with S. bambusae KACC 22910T, 'Sphingobacterium deserti' ACCC 05744T, S. griseoflavum CGMCC 1.12966T and Sphingobacterium paludis CGMCC 1.12801T. Orthologous average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain M6-31T and its closely related strains were lower than 74.6 and 22.0â%, respectively.

Three Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and coccobacilli-shaped bacterial strains, designated as NPKOSM-4T, NPKOSM-8 and MO-31T, were isolated from rice paddy soil. They had 96.5-100â% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to each other, and strains NPKOSM-4T and NPKOSM-8 showed 100â% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, confirming that they were the same species. Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA genes with closely related type strains showed that three isolates were most closely related to Falsiroseomonas terricola EM0302T (96.1-97.8â%), Falsiroseomonas wooponensis WW53T (95.51-96.3â%) and Falsiroseomonas bella CQN31T (96.0-96.5â%), respectively. The genomes of strains NPKOSM-4T and MO-31T consisted of 4â632â875 and 6â455â771 bps, respectively, with 72.0 and 72.1âmol% G+C content. The average nucleotide identity (ANI), average amino acid identity (AAI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strains NPKOSM-4T and MO-31T and type strains of Falsiroseomonas species were lower than the cut-offs (≥95â% for ANI, ≥95-96â% for AAI and ≥ 70â% for dDDH) required to define a bacterial species. The major fatty acids of strains NPKOSM-4T, NPKOSM-8 and MO-31T were C18â:â1 ω7c and C18â:â1 2-OH (<10â%) and the predominant quinone was Q-10. The polar lipids of strain NPKOSM-4T were identified as diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, one unidentified aminophospholipid and three unidentified aminolipids. The polar lipid profiles of strain MO-31T contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, one unidentified aminolipid and three unidentified lipids. Based on their distinctive phenotypic, phylogenetic, and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strains NPKOSM-4T, NPKOSM-8 and MO-31T are considered to represent two novel species of the genus Falsiroseomonas, for which the names Falsiroseomonas oryziterrae sp. nov.

Three microaerophilic bacterial strains, designated SG22T, SG63T and SG29T were isolated from paddy soils in PR China. Cells of these strains were Gram-staining-negative and long rod-shaped. SG22T, SG63T and SG29T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with the members of the genus Anaeromyxobacter. The results of phylogenetic and phylogenomic analysis also indicated that these strains clustered with members of the genus Anaeromyxobacter. The main respiratory menaquinone of SG22T, SG63T and SG29T was MK-8 and the major fatty acids were iso-C15â:â0, iso-C17â:â0 and C16â:â0. SG22T, SG29T and SG63T not only possessed iron reduction ability but also harboured genes (nifHDK) encoding nitrogenase. The genomic DNA G+C contents of SG22T, SG63T and SG29T ranged from 73.3 to 73.5â%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridisation (dDDH) values between SG22T, SG63T and SG29T and the closely related species of the genus Anaeromyxobacter were lower than the cut-off values (dDDH 70â% and ANI 95-96â%) for prokaryotic species delineation. On the basis of these results, strains SG22T, SG63T and SG29T represent three novel species within the genus Anaeromyxobacter, for which the names Anaeromyxobacter terrae sp. nov., Anaeromyxobacter oryzisoli sp. nov. and Anaeromyxobacter soli sp. nov., are proposed. The type strains are SG22T (= GDMCC 1.3185T = JCM 35581T), SG63T (= GDMCC 1.2914T = JCM 35124T) and SG29T (= GDMCC 1.2911T = JCM 35123T).

A Gram-negative and rod-shaped bacterium, designated C340-1T, was isolated and screened from paddy soil in Zhongshan County, Guangxi Province, PR China. This strain grew at 20-42â°C (optimum, 37â°C), pH 5.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and 0-4â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0-1â%) on Reasoner's 2A medium. The strain could fix atmospheric nitrogen and acetylene reduction activity was recorded up to 120.26 nmol ethylene h-1 (mg protein)-1. Q-10 was the only isoprenoid quinone component; phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, an unidentified aminolipid and an unidentified polar lipid were the major polar lipids. Summed feature 8 (C18â:â1 ω7c and/or C18â:â1 ω6c) and summed feature 3 (C16â:â1 ω7c and/or C16â:â1 ω6c) were the primary cellular fatty acids. The genome of strain C340-1T was 6.18 Mb, and the G+C content was 69.0 mol%. Phylogenetic tree analysis based on 16S rRNA gene and 92 core genes showed that strain C340-1T was closely related to and clustered with the type strains Azospirillum brasilense JCM 1224T, Azospirillum argentinense Az39T, Azospirillum baldaniorum Sp245T and Azospirillum formosense JCM 17639T. The average nucleotide identity (ANI), average amino acid identity (AAI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strain C340-1T and the closely related type strains mentioned above were significantly lower than the threshold values for species classification (95-96â%, 95-96â% and 70â%, respectively). Based on phylogenetic, genomic, phenotypic, physiological and biochemical data, we have reason to believe that C340-1T represents a new species of the genus Azospirillum, for which the name Azospirillum isscasi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is C340-1T(=CCTCC AB 2023105T=KCTC 8126T).

Hydroxyl radicals (â¢OH) play a significant role in contaminant transformation and element cycling during redox fluctuations in paddy soil. However, these important processes might be affected by widely used agricultural amendments, such as urea, pig manure, and biochar, which have rarely been explored, especially regarding their impact on soil aggregates and associated biogeochemical processes. Herein, based on five years of fertilization experiments in the field, we found that agricultural amendments, especially coapplication of fertilizers and biochar, significantly increased soil organic carbon contents and the abundances of iron (Fe)-reducing bacteria. They also substantially altered the fraction of soil aggregates, which consequently enhanced the electron-donating capacity and the formation of active Fe(II) species (i.e., 0.5 M HCl-Fe(II)) in soil aggregates (0-2 mm), especially in small aggregates (0-3 µm). The highest contents of active Fe(II) species in small aggregates were mainly responsible for the highest â¢OH production (increased by 1.7-2.4-fold) and naphthalene attenuation in paddy soil with coapplication of fertilizers and biochar. Overall, this study offers new insights into the effects of agricultural amendments on regulating â¢OH formation in paddy soil and proposes feasible strategies for soil remediation in agricultural fields, especially in soils with frequent occurrences of redox fluctuations.
RESUMO
Dissimilatory arsenate reduction contributes a large proportion of arsenic flux from flooded paddy soil, which is closely linked to soil organic carbon input and efflux. Humic acid (HA) represents a natural ingredient in soil and is shown to enhance microbial arsenate respiration to promote arsenic mobility. However, the community and function profiles of metabolically active arsenate-respiring bacteria and their interactions with HA in paddy soil remain unclear. To probe this linkage, we performed a genome-centric comparison of potentially active arsenate-respiring bacteria in anaerobic microcosms amended with 13C-lactate and HA by combining stable-isotope probing with genome-resolved metagenomics. Indeed, HA greatly accelerated the microbial reduction of arsenate to arsenite. Enrichment of bacteria that harbor arsenate-respiring reductase genes (arrA) in HA-enriched 13C-DNA was confirmed by metagenomic binning, which are affiliated with Firmicutes (mainly Desulfitobacterium, Bacillus, Brevibacillus, and Clostridia) and Acidobacteria. Characterization of reference extracellular electron transfer (EET)-related genes in these arrA-harboring bacteria supports the presence of EET-like genes, with partial electron-transport chain genes identified. This suggests that Gram-positive Firmicutes- and Acidobacteria-related members may harbor unspecified EET-associated genes involved in metal reduction. Our findings highlight the link between soil HA and potentially active arsenate-respiring bacteria, which can be considered when using HA for arsenic removal.

Flooding of paddy fields during the rice growing season enhances arsenic (As) mobilization and greenhouse gas (e.g., methane) emissions. In this study, an adsorbent for dissolved organic matter (DOM), namely, activated carbon (AC), was applied to an arsenic-contaminated paddy soil. The capacity for simultaneously alleviating soil carbon emissions and As accumulation in rice grains was explored. Soil microcosm incubations and 2-year pot experimental results indicated that AC amendment significantly decreased porewater DOM, Fe(III) reduction/Fe2+ release, and As release. More importantly, soil carbon dioxide and methane emissions were mitigated in anoxic microcosm incubations. Porewater DOM of pot experiments mainly consisted of humic-like fluorophores with a molecular structure of lignins and tannins, which could mediate microbial reduction of Fe(III) (oxyhydr)oxides. Soil microcosm incubation experiments cospiking with a carbon source and AC further consolidated that DOM electron shuttling and microbial carbon source functions were crucial for soil Fe(III) reduction, thus driving paddy soil As release and carbon emission. Additionally, the application of AC alleviated rice grain dimethylarsenate accumulation over 2 years. Our results highlight the importance of microbial extracellular electron transfer in driving paddy soil anaerobic respiration and decreasing porewater DOM in simultaneously remediating As contamination and mitigating methane emission in paddy fields.

Recently, the newly discovered anaerobic ammonium oxidation coupled with iron reduction (i.e., Feammox) has been proven to be a widespread nitrogen (N) loss pathway in ecosystems and has an essential contribution to gaseous N loss in paddy soil. However, the mechanism of iron-nitrogen coupling transformation and the role of iron-reducing bacteria (IRB) in Feammox were poorly understood. This study investigated the Feammox and iron reduction changes and microbial community evolution in a long-term anaerobic incubation by 15N isotope labeling combined with molecular biological techniques. The average rates of Feammox and iron reduction during the whole incubation were 0.25 ± 0.04 µg N g-1 d-1 and 40.58 ± 3.28 µg Fe g-1 d-1, respectively. High iron oxide content increased the Feammox rate, but decreased the proportion of Feammox-N2 in three Feammox pathways. RBG-13-54-9, Brevundimonas, and Pelomonas played a vital role in the evolution of microbial communities. The characteristics of asynchronous changes between Feammox and iron reduction were found through long-term incubation. IRB might not be the key species directly driving Feammox, and it is necessary to reevaluate the role of IRB in Feammox process.

Soil nitrogen (N) transformation processes, encompassing denitrification, anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox), and anaerobic ammonium oxidation coupled with iron reduction (Feammox), constitute the primary mechanisms of soil dinitrogen (N2) loss. Despite the significance of these processes, there is a notable gap in research regarding the assessment of managed fertilization and irrigation impacts on anaerobic N transformations in paddy soil, crucial for achieving sustainable soil fertility management. This study addressed the gap by investigating the contributions of soil denitrification, anammox, and Feammox to N2 loss in paddy soil across varying soil depths, employing different fertilization and irrigation practices by utilizing N stable isotope technique for comprehensive insights. The results showed that anaerobic N transformation processes decreased with increasing soil depth under alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation, but increased with the increasing soil depth under conventional continuous flooding (CF) irrigation. The denitrification and anammox rates varied from 0.41 to 2.12 mg N kg-1 d-1 and 0.062-0.394 mg N kg-1 d-1, respectively, which accounted for 84.3-88.1% and 11.8-15.7% of the total soil N2 loss. Significant correlations were found among denitrification rate and anammox rate (r = 0.986, p < 0.01), Fe (â ¢) reduction rate and denitrification rate (r = 0.527, p < 0.05), and Fe(â ¢) reduction rate and anammox rate (r = 0.622, p < 0.05). Moreover, nitrogen loss was more pronounced in the surface layer of the paddy soil compared to the deep layer. The study revealed that denitrification predominantly contributed to N loss in the surface soil, while Feammox emerged as a significant N loss pathway at depths ranging from 20 to 40 cm, accounting for up to 26.1% of the N loss. It was concluded that fertilization, irrigation, and soil depth significantly influenced anaerobic N transformation processes. In addition, the CF irrigation practice is best option to reduce N loss under managed fertilization. Furthermore, the role of microbial communities and their response to varying soil depths, fertilization practices, and irrigation methods could enhance our understanding on nitrogen loss pathways should be explored in future study.

Root exudate is a major source of soil organic matter and can significantly affect arsenic (As) migration and transformation in paddy soils. Citric acid is the main component of rice root exudate, however, the impacts and rules of citric acid on As bioavailability and rhizobacteria in different soils remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of citric acid on As transformation and microbial community in ten different paddy soils by flooded soil culture experiments. The results showed that citric acid addition increased total As and arsenate (As(V)) in the soil porewater by up to 41-fold and 65-fold, respectively, after 2-h incubation. As(V) was the main As species in soil porewater within 10 days with the addition of citric acid. Non-specifically sorbed As of soils, total Fe and total As were the main environmental factors affecting the soil microbial communities. High-throughput sequencing analysis demonstrated that citric acid addition significantly altered the soil microbial community structure, shifting the Proteobacteria-related reducing bacteria to Firmicutes-related reducing bacteria in different paddy soils. The relative abundance of Firmicutes was promoted by 174-196%. Clostridium-related bacteria belonging to Firmicutes became the dominant genera, which is believed to regulate As release through the reductive dissolution of iron oxides or the direct reduction of As(V) to arsenite (As(III)). However, citric acid addition significantly decreased the relative abundance of Geobacter and Anaeromyxobacter, which are also typical active As(V)- and ferric-reducing bacteria. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) also revealed that the addition of citric acid significantly decreased the relative abundances of Geobacter in the different soils by 8-28 times while the relative abundances of Clostridium increased by 2-5 times. These results provide significant insight on As transformation in different types of rice rhizospheric soils and guidance for the application of rice varieties with low citric acid exuding to restrict As accumulation.

Arsenic (As) poisoning in groundwater and rice paddy soil has increased globally, impacting human health and food security. There is an urgent need to deal with As-contaminated groundwater and soil. Biochar can be a useful remedy for toxic contaminants. This study explains the synthesis of pinecone-magnetic biochar (PC-MBC) by engineering the pinecone-pristine biochar with iron salts (FeCl3.6H2O and FeSO4.7H2O) to investigate its effects on As(V) adsorption and immobilization in water and soil, respectively. The results indicated that PC-MBC can remediate As(V)-contaminated water, with an adsorption capacity of 12.14 mg g-1 in water. Isotherm and kinetic modeling showed that the adsorption mechanism involved multilayer, monolayer, and diffusional processes, with chemisorption operating as the primary interface between As(V) and biochar. Post-adsorption analysis of PC-MBC, using FTIR and XRD, further revealed chemical fixing and outer-sphere complexation between As(V) and Fe, O, NH, and OH as the main reasons for As(V) adsorption onto PC-MBC. Recycling of PC-MBC also had excellent adsorption even after several regeneration cycles. Similarly, PC-MBC successfully immobilized As in paddy soil. Single and sequential extraction results showed the transformation of mobile forms of As to a more stable form, confirmed by non-destructive analysis using SEM, EDX, and elemental dot mapping. Thus, Fe-modified pine-cone biochar could be a suitable and cheap adsorbent for As-contaminated water and soil.

Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) is attracting increasing attention as the most commonly used environmental remediation material. However, given the high surface area and strong reducing capabilities of nZVI, there is a lack of understanding regarding its effects on the complex anaerobic methane production process in flooded soils. To elucidate the mechanism of CH4 production in soil exposed to nZVI, paddy soil was collected and subjected to anaerobic culture under continuous flooding conditions, with various dosages of nZVI applied. The results showed that the introduction of nZVI into anaerobic flooded rice paddy systems promoted microbial utilization of acetate and carbon dioxide as carbon sources for methane production, ultimately leading to increased methane production. Following the introduction of nZVI into the soil, there was a rapid increase in hydrogen levels in the headspace, surpassing that of the control group. The hydrogen levels in both the experimental and control groups were depleted by the 29th day of culture. These findings suggest that nZVI exposure facilitates the enrichment of hydrogenotrophic methanogens, providing them with a favorable environment for growth. Additionally, it affected soil physicochemical properties by increasing pH and electrical conductivity. The metagenomic analysis further indicates that under exposure to nZVI, hydrogenotrophic methanogens, particularly Methanobacteriaceae and Methanocellaceae, were enriched. The relative abundance of genes such as mcrA and mcrB associated with methane production was increased. This study provides important theoretical insights into the response of key microbes, functional genes, and methane production pathways to nZVI during anaerobic methane production in rice paddy soils, offering fundamental insights into the long-term fate and risks associated with the introduction of nZVI into soils.

A nitrogen-fixing strain designated SG130T was isolated from paddy soil in Fujian Province, China. Strain SG130T was Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, and strictly anaerobic. Strain SG130T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with the type strains Dendrosporobacter quercicolus DSM 1736T (91.7%), Anaeroarcus burkinensis DSM 6283T (91.0%) and Anaerospora hongkongensis HKU 15T (90.9%). Furthermore, the phylogenetic and phylogenomic analysis also suggested strain SG130T clustered with members of the family Sporomusaceae and was distinguished from other genera within this family. Growth of strain SG130T was observed at 25-45 °C (optimum 30 °C), pH 6.0-9.5 (optimum 7.0) and 0-1% (w/v) NaCl (optimum 0.1%). The quinones were Q-8 and Q-9. The polar lipids were phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), glycolipid (GL), phospholipid (PL) and an unidentified lipid (UL). The major fatty acids (> 10%) were iso-C13:0 3OH (26.6%), iso-C17:1 (15.6%) and iso-C15:1 F (11.4%). The genomic DNA G + C content was 50.7%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strain SG130T and the most closely related type strain D. quercicolus DSM 1736T (ANI 68.0% and dDDH 20.3%) were both below the cut-off level for species delineation. The average amino acid identity (AAI) between strain SG130T and the most closely related type strain D. quercicolus DSM 1736T was 63.2%, which was below the cut-off value for bacterial genus delineation (65%). Strain SG130T possessed core genes (nifHDK) involved in nitrogen fixation, and nitrogenase activity (106.38 µmol C2H4 g-1 protein h-1) was examined using the acetylene reduction assay. Based on the above results, strain SG130T is confirmed to represent a novel genus of the family Sporomusaceae, for which the name Azotosporobacter soli gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SG130T (= GDMCC 1.3312T = JCM 35641T).

In this research, two novel Fe(III)-reducing bacteria, SG10T and SG198T of genus Geothrix, were isolated from the rice field of Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, China. Strains SG10T and SG198T were strictly anaerobic, rod-shaped and Gram-stain-negative. The two novel strains exhibited iron reduction ability, utilizing various single organic acid as the elector donor and Fe(III) as a terminal electron acceptor. Strains SG10T and SG198T showed the highest 16S rRNA sequences similarities to the type strains of Geothrix oryzisoli SG189T (99.0-99.5%) and Geothrix paludis SG195T (99.0-99.7%), respectively. The phylogenetic trees based on the 16S rRNA gene and genome 120 conserved core genes showed that strains SG10T and SG198T belong to the genus Geothrix. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between the phylogenetic neighbors and the two isolated strains were 86.1-94.3% and 30.7-59.5%, respectively. The major fatty acids were iso-C15:0, anteiso-C15:0, C16:0 and iso-C13:0 3OH, and MK-8 was the main respiratory quinone. According to above results, the two strains were assigned to the genus Geothrix with the names Geothrix campi sp. nov. and Geothrix mesophila sp. nov. Type strains are SG10T (= GDMCC 1.3406 T = JCM 39331 T) and SG198T (= GDMCC 62910 T = KCTC 25635 T), respectively.

Methanotrophs of the genus Methylocystis are frequently found in rice paddies. Although more than ten facultative methanotrophs have been reported since 2005, none of these strains was isolated from paddy soil. Here, a facultative methane-oxidizing bacterium, Methylocystis iwaonis SD4, was isolated and characterized from rhizosphere samples of rice plants in Nanjing, China. This strain grew well on methane or methanol but was able to grow slowly using acetate or ethanol. Moreover, strain SD4 showed sustained growth at low concentrations of methane (100 and 500 ppmv). M. iwaonis SD4 could utilize diverse nitrogen sources, including nitrate, urea, ammonium as well as dinitrogen. Strain SD4 possessed genes encoding both the particulate methane monooxygenase and the soluble methane monooxygenase. Simple and rapid genetic manipulation methods were established for this strain, enabling vector transformation and unmarked genetic manipulation. Fast growth rate and efficient genetic tools make M. iwaonis SD4 an ideal model to study facultative methanotrophs, and the ability to grow on low concentration of methane implies its potential in methane removal.

Following ion-adsorption rare earth mining, the residual tailings experience considerable heavy metal contamination and gradually evolve into a pollution source. Therefore, the leaching characteristics and environmental impact of heavy metals in ion-adsorption rare earth tailings require immediate and thorough investigation. This study adopted batch and column experiments to investigate the leaching behaviour of heavy metals in tailings and assess the impact of tailings on paddy soil, thereby providing a scientific basis for environmental protection in mining areas. The results showed that Mn, Zn, and Pb contents were 431.67, 155.05, and 264.33â¯mg·kg-1, respectively, which were several times higher than their respective background values, thereby indicating significant heavy metal contamination in the tailings. The batch leaching experiment indicated that Mn and Pb were priority control heavy metals. Heavy metals were divided into fast and slow leaching stages. The Mn and Pb leaching concentrations far exceeded environmental limits. The DoseResp model perfectly fitted the leaching of all heavy metals from the tailings (R2 > 0.99). In conjunction with the findings of the column experiment and correlation analysis, the chemical form, rainfall pH, ammonia nitrogen, and mineral properties were identified as the primary factors controlling heavy metal release from tailings. Rainfall primarily caused heavy metal migration in the acid-extraction form from the tailings. The tailing leachate not only introduced heavy metals into the paddy soil but also caused the transformation of the chemical form of heavy metals in the paddy soil, further exacerbating the environmental risk posed by heavy metals. The study findings are significant for environmental conservation in mining areas and implementing environmentally friendly practices in rare earth mining.

Arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) accumulation in rice grains is a global food safety issue, and various methods and materials have been used to remove or reduce As and Cd in agricultural soils and rice grains. Despite the availability of synthesized materials capable of simultaneous As and Cd reduction from soil and rice grains, the contributions, efficiency, and main ingredients of the materials for As and Cd immobilization remain unclear. The present study first summarized the biogeochemistry of As and Cd in paddy soils and their transfer in the soil-food-human continuum. We also reviewed a series of reported inorganic and organic materials for simultaneous immobilization of As and Cd in paddy soils, and their reduction efficiency of As and Cd bioavailability were listed and compared. Based on the abovementioned materials, the study conducted a meta-analysis of 38 articles with 2565 observations to quantify the impacts of materials on simultaneous As and Cd reduction from soil and rice grains. Meta-analysis results showed that combining organic and inorganic amendments corresponded to effect sizes of -62.3% and -67.8% on As and Cd accumulation in rice grains, while the effect sizes on As and Cd reduction in paddy soils were -44.2% and -46.2%, respectively. Application of Fe based materials significantly (P < 0.05) reduced As (-54.2%) and Cd (-74.9%), accounting for the highest immobilization efficiency of As and Cd in rice grain among all the reviewed materials, outweighing S, Mn, P, Si, and Ca based materials. Moreover, precipitation, surface complexation, ion exchange, and electrostatic attraction mechanisms were involved in the co-immobilization tactics. The present study underlines the application of combined organic and inorganic amendments in simultaneous As and Cd immobilization. It also highlighted that employing Fe-incorporated biochar material may be a potential strategy for co-mitigating As and Cd pollution in paddy soils and accumulation in rice grains.

Arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) accumulation in rice grain is a global concern threatening food security and safety to the growing population. As and Cd are toxic non-essential elements poisonous to animal and human at higher levels. Its accumulation in agro-ecosystems pose a public health risk to consumers of agro-ecosystem products. Due to their hazards, As and Cd sources should be cleared, avoiding entering plants and the human body. As and Cd removal in soils and grains in agro-ecosystems has been conducted by various materials (natural and synthesized), however, there are little documentation on their contribution on As and Cd removal or reduction in rice grains. This identified knowledge gap necessitate a systematically review to understand efficiency and mechanisms of As and Cd availability reduction and removal in paddy farming areas through utilization of various synthetic and modified materials. To achieve this, published peer reviewed articles between 2010 and 2024 were collected from various database i.e., Science Direct, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Research Gate and analyzed its content in respect to As and Cd reduction and removal. Furthermore, collected data were re-analyzed to determine standardized mean differences (SMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Based on 96 studies with 228 observations involving Fe, Ca, Si, and Se-based materials were identified, it was found that application of Fe, Ca, Si, and Se-based materials potentially reduced As and Cd in rice grains among various study sites and across studies. Among the studied materials, Fe-based materials observed to be more efficient compared to other utilized materials. However, there little or no information on performance of materials when used in combination and how they can improve crop productivity and soil health, thus requiring further studies. Thus, this study confirm Fe, Ca, Si, and Se modified materials have significant potential to reduce As and Cd availability in paddy farming areas and rice grains, thus necessary effort must be made to ensure materials access and availability for farmers utilization in paddy fields to reduce As and Cd accumulation.
