Foliar Application of L-Cysteine: Effects on the Concentration of Cd and Mineral Elements in Rice

To evaluate the feasibility of applying L-cysteine (L-Cys) as a foliar conditioner for Cd reduction in rice, a field experiment was conducted to investigate the concentration of Cd and mineral elements in rice after the foliar application of L-Cys. The variation in Cd distribution and morphology in key rice organs was examined to study the Cd reduction mechanisms of spraying L-Cys on rice. The results showed that foliar application of L-Cys at the rice-flowering stage significantly decreased Cd concentration in grains, in a concentration dependent manner, without inhibiting the accumulation of mineral elements Ca, Mg, K, Mn, and Zn. With a 10 mmol ·L^-1 L-Cys application, Cd concentration in rice grains decreased by 59.2%, to below 0.2 mg ·kg^-1, which is the maximum safety limit in China. Foliar application of L-Cys also inhibited Cd accumulation in rice vegetative organs, including rachises, first nodes, neck-panicles, flag leaves, second internodes, second nodes, second leaves, stalks, and roots (58.3%, 56.0%, 62.7%, 67.0%, 59.3%, 61.5%, 60.2%, 54.9%, and 50.3%, respectively). After transfer factor calculation, first nodes were found to be the key organ for Cd blocking in rice. The application of L-Cys increased Cd transfer from flag leaves and second internodes to first nodes (105.4% and 45.8%, respectively), but decreased Cd transfer from first nodes up to neck-panicles (27.5%). In rice first nodes, the concentrations of Cd in the inorganic, water soluble, and residue states were all lower following L-Cys application, and the proportion of residual Cd increased to 94.4%. Therefore, foliar application of L-Cys significantly inhibited Cd transport and accumulation in rice grains, by decreasing the Cd concentrations of various vegetative organs and improving Cd interception in the first nodes. This is a promising way to produce rice with lower Cd concentrations and normal mineral element concentrations in Cd-contaminated paddy fields.
