ABSTRACT
A field experiment in which a hyperaccumulator (Arabis alpina) was intercropped with winter crop (Vicia faba), was conducted to understand effect of the root exudates on the content and accumulated amounts, sub-cellular distribution of Cd and Pb of the intercropped plants during the ripening period of V. faba (120 d after sowing). The results showed that contents of soluble sugars exuded from the roots of intercropped A. alpina were 67.6% less than that of the monocropped plant, whereas contents of free amino acids was 57.9% greater. The total contents of organic acids exuded from roots of intercropped A. alpina and V. faba were 578.8% and 37.8% greater than that of monocropped plants, respectively. The contents of tartaric acid and malic acid exuded by roots of intercropped A. alpina were greater 31.9 times and 15.9 times than those of monocropped A. alpina, respectively. The contents and accumulated amounts of Cd and Pb in intercropped A. alpina were greater than those of monocropped A. alpina. The contents of Pb bound to organic matter in cell walls, cytoplasm and organelles of intercropped plants were greater than those of monocropped plants. These results demonstrate that increases in accumulated amounts of Pb and Cd caused by intercropping were closely related to migration of Cd and Pb in plants mediated by the composition and content of the root exudates.
