Cadmium is a heavy metal, which, even at low concentrations, can be highly toxic to the growth and development of both plants and animals. Plant species vary extensively in their tolerance to excess cadmium in a growth medium and very few cadmium-tolerant species have been identified. In this study, tumbleweed plants (Salsola kali) grown in an agar-based medium with 20 mgl(-1) of Cd(II) did not show phytotoxicity, and their roots had the most biomass (4.5 mg) (P < 0.05) compared to the control plants (2.7 mg) as well as other treated plants. These plants accumulated 2696, 2075, and 2016 mg Cd kg(-1) of dry roots, stems, and leaves, respectively. The results suggest that there is no restricted cadmium movement in tumbleweed plants. In addition, the amount of Cd found in the dry leaf tissue suggests that tumbleweed could be considered as potential cadmium hyperaccumulating species. X-ray absorption spectroscopy studies demonstrated that in roots, cadmium was bound to oxygen while in stems and leaves, the metal was attached to oxygen and sulfur groups. This might imply that some small organic acids are responsible for Cd transport from roots to stems and leaves. In addition, it might be possible that the plant synthesizes phytochelatins in the stems, later coordinating the absorbed cadmium for transport and storage in cell structures. Thus, it is possible that in the leaves, Cd either exists as a Cd-phytochelatin complex or bound to cell wall structures. Current studies are being performed in order to elucidate the proposed hypothesis. 相似文献

Abstract: Legume trees have been harvested in the Sonoyta Valley since 1975. We estimated the effects of this woodcutting along the border between Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument (U.S.A.) and Sonora, Mexico. We placed 10 × 100 m transects in ephemeral watercourses and uplands on both sides of the international boundary at different distances from the border. Mesquite and ironwood trees exhibited significantly higher damage in the Mexican sites than in the protected uplands in the United States. Damage for all the species significantly decreased 500 m from the border, with the exception of ironwood, for which damage remained high within ephemeral watercourses. 相似文献

In the present investigation, two zeolite-rich tuffs from Guaymas and El Cajon(State of Sonora), which were conditioned with a sodium chloride solution and subsequently modified with a thiourea solution, were chosen to evaluate the removal of Cd from aqueous systems. The zeolitic materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The surface area was also determined. The experiments were performed in a batch system, and the influences of p H, contact time between phases, and the concentration of Cd in the solution on the adsorption by sodium or thiourea-modified zeolite-rich tuff were investigated. It was found that the efficiency of Cd ion removal from aqueous solutions is influenced by the p H of the aqueous systems. The Cd adsorption kinetic data were well fitted to a pseudo-second-order model in all cases. The Langmuir and Langmuir–Freundlich isotherms adequately described the Cd sorption behavior by the zeolite from El Cajon pretreated with Na Cl and the zeolite from Guaymas modified with thiourea, respectively. 相似文献

The fate of 100 marked recruits of the rhizophytic alga Halimeda incrassata was followed in Puerto Morelos reef lagoon, Mexican Caribbean (20°52′N, 86°51′W), until death of the last individual from
April 2005–2007. Juvenile mortality was relatively high (19%), the half-life of adult thalli was 13 months and maximal lifespan
was 2 years. First age of sexual reproduction was 10 months, but only 6% of the marked thalli reproduced sexually. A subsequent
static life-table approach (February–April 2008) at two sites indicated low spatial variation in transition probabilities
between the life stages. Recruits were found throughout the year (density 2–11 thalli m−2) and were mostly of clonal origin. In a disturbed area, the density of sexual recruits was ~0.01 thalli m2. Temporal fluctuations in population size depended on mortality rates, which increased slightly after hurricanes Emily (July
2005) and Wilma (October 2005), but might otherwise be regulated by density-dependent processes. 相似文献

Ozone air pollution is a serious problem in several cities of the world. Hence, to analyse the behaviour of this pollutant
is a very important issue. One problem of interest is to study the behaviour of the inter-occurrences times between two ozone
exceedances, i.e. between two days in which the pollutant’s measurement surpasses a given threshold. Another interest resides
in comparing the behaviour of ozone measurements in different seasons of the year. In this paper we use some Poisson models
to analyse this problem. The time interval at which the ozone measurements were taken is split into subintervals corresponding
roughly to the seasons of the year. We consider three parametric forms for the mean of the Poisson model, and consequently
for the mean of the inter-occurrences times. In each model, the parameters describing its mean are estimated using Bayesian
inference via Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. The models are applied to the ozone measurements provided by the Mexico City
monitoring network. Theoretical results suggest that an increase has occurred in the mean inter-exceedances times and this
is corroborated by the observed data. Differences between the behaviour of the pollutant during different seasons of the year
are also detected as well as similarities in the same season in different years. Besides estimating the mean of the Poisson
models, inference for the possible presence and location of change-points indicating change of parameters of the model is
also performed. 相似文献
