Plants growing on metalliferous soils from abandoned mines are unique because of their ability to cope with high metal levels in soil. In this study, we characterized plants and an Pb-Zn mine the Basque Country (northern Spain). Soil area proved be deficient major macronutrients contain toxic Cd, Pb, Zn. Spontaneously native (belonging 31 species, 28 genera, 15 families) were botanically identified. Plant shoots rhizosphere soil sampled at several sites mine, analyzed for Zn Cd...
Although citizenship's literacy in biodiversity is a promising way of confronting its loss, the unawareness about this topic generalised particularly regarding plants. The latter phenomenon, named Plant Blindness (PB), not only refers to inability notice and identify surrounding plants, but also lack knowledge basics plant biology subsequent ignorance value Hence, aim research has been assess whether secondary students experience PB analyse if phenomenon can be interrelated with their...
Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve holds a diversity of habitats and resources that are essential for migratory bird species' conservation, at the same time provides rich milieu development environmental education programs. This study evaluates impact daylong place-based program, performed Bird Center (UBC), on secondary students' attitudes knowledge. Students (n = 908) completed written questionnaire where their perceptions marshes, together with interest in biodiversity, knowledge about migration...
Abstract Identifying the mental models held by students has been widely emphasized as being a pivotal aspect of effective science education. In fact, it allows us to understand students’ conceptions, detect teaching-learning difficulties and tailor instruction accordingly. Hence, in this study, plant nutrition upper secondary were investigated empirically validated with aim detecting most pressing learning demands providing instructional guidelines improve topic. order unveil 5-question...
ABSTRACT In this study, we investigated the accumulation of phytochelatins (PCs) and other low molecular weight (LMW) thiols in response to Cd exposure two contrasting ecotypes differing accumulation. Using a root elongation test, found that highly accumulating ecotype Ganges was more tolerant than Cd‐accumulation Prayon. l ‐buthionine‐(S,R)‐sulphoximine (BSO), potent inhibitor γ ‐glutamylcysteine synthetase ( ‐ECS) (an enzyme involved PC biosynthetic pathway), increased sensitivity Prayon,...
Species literacy is an important aspect of biodiversity education. This study assesses the ability secondary students (12/13 years old; n = 944) to list wild animals and plants aims determine whether this linked with their interest in nature, preferences towards different groups therein, school type (public or private), per capita income size students' hometowns. We have observed that claim a very high but they spontaneously recall worrisome proportion exotic species (especially animals), as...
PLANTS EXPOSED TO Cd AND Zn.In order to evaluate the response of Brachiaria decumbens Stapf and Zn, plants were hydroponically exposed 50 100 mmol L -1 500 2000 Zn.Metal content shoots roots was determined, as well alterations in photosynthetic photoprotective pigments, antioxidant metabolites phytochelatin synthesis.Plants concentrated elevated levels especially roots.Zinc exposure negatively affected chlorophyll β-carotene content, whereas highest dose reduced VAZ cycle pigments tocopherol...

La enseñanza/aprendizaje del Modelo Científico de la Nutrición Vegetal (MCNV) es un tema fundamental en enseñanza las ciencias. Sin embargo, se trata uno los contenidos más difíciles tanto enseñar como aprender. Con el objetivo guiar al profesorado diseño secuencias y construcción ambientes aprendizaje efectivos, este estudio consta tres secciones. En primera realiza análisis epistemológico MCNV para definir ideas clave que han ser trabajadas durante recorrido académico. segunda define...
