| Abstract: |
| The aim of the study was to explore the effect of Bacillus mucilaginosus on the ability of Althaea rosea to remediate Cd contamination in soil. A pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of Bacillus mucilaginosus on biomass, Cd accumulation, available Cd content in rhizosphere soil, and enzyme activities in rhizosphere soil under 25 mg·kg-1 Cd stress. The results indicated that compared to treatment with Cd alone, under 25 mg·kg-1 Cd stress, application of 6 g·kg-1 B. mucilaginosus could significantly increase root and stem biomass (P<0.05)and increased total biomass by 33.6%~73.2%. Cd accumulation in A. rosea was 1.64, 2.89, and 1.69 times higher than that with Cd treatment alone when applied with 3, 6, and 9 g·kg-1 B. mucilaginosus, respectively. Available Cd content in rhizosphere soil increased significantly after application of different concentrations of bacterial fertilizer (P<0.05). The activity of urease, invertase, and dehydrogenase in rhizosphere soil of A. rosea was significantly increased by application of bacterial fertilizer (P<0.05); however, the activity of polyphenol oxidase continued to decrease and changed significantly (P<0.05). The results showed that the application of B. mucilaginosus under 25 mg·kg-1 Cd treatment could effectively improve the ability of A. rosea to remediate soil Cd pollution, and the best concentration of bacterial fertilizer was 6 g·kg-1. Remediation of Cd contamination in soil by Althaea rosea-Bacillus mucilaginosus has application potential. |
