Phytomining technology employs hyperaccumulator plants to take up metal in harvestable plant biomass. Harvesting, drying and incineration of the biomass generates a high-grade bio-ore. We propose that "agromining" (a variant phytomining) could provide local communities with an alternative type agriculture on degraded lands; farming not for food crops, but metals such as nickel (Ni). However, two decades after its inception numerous successful experiments, commercial phytomining has yet...
Mining activity for rare earth elements (REEs) has caused serious environmental pollution, particularly soil ecosystems. However, the effects of REEs on microbiota are still poorly understood. In this study, soils were collected from abandoned sites a mine, and structure, diversity, co-occurrence patterns evaluated by Illumina high-throughput sequencing targeting 16S rRNA genes. Although developed significantly along with natural restoration, microbial structure site 10 years differed that...
In this study, concentrations of bisphenol A (BPA) and seven other bisphenols (BPs) were measured in urine samples collected from people living around e-waste dismantling facilities, matched reference population rural urban areas China. BPA, S (BPS), F (BPF) frequently detected (detection frequencies: > 90%) individuals who live near with geometric mean (GM) 2.99 (or 3.75), 0.361 0.469), 0.349 0.435) ng/mL μg/g Cre), respectively; the five BPs rarely found samples, regardless sampling...
Bioaccumulation of arsenic (As) in rice (Oryza sativa) increases human exposure to this toxic, carcinogenic element. Recent studies identified several As transporters, but the regulation these transporters remains unclear. Here, we show that R2R3 MYB transcription factor OsARM1 (ARSENITE-RESPONSIVE MYB1) regulates As-associated genes. Treatment with As(III) induced transcript accumulation and an OsARM1-GFP fusion localized nucleus. Histochemical analysis OsARM1pro::GUS lines indicated was...
