Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect EDTA significantly enhanced the bioconcentration factor for Cu, Ni and Pb in Cistanthe grandiflora compared with the control group.
- Intervention effect EDTA significantly enhanced the bioconcentration factor for Mo in Cistanthe grandiflora compared with the control group.
- Intervention effect A lower dose of EDTA (300 mg·kg−1) increased the translocation factor of cadmium in Cistanthe grandiflora to 1.3, suggesting potential for phytoextraction.
- Intervention effect nZVI application slightly improved the translocation factor for copper and chromium in Cistanthe grandiflora, without exceeding unity; its impact was limited.
- Recommendation Cistanthe grandiflora assisted by EDTA is a promising candidate for phytostabilization of heavy metals in mine tailings.
