Abstract

The pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of colchicines on cadmium (Cd) accumulation of post generation of Bidens pilosa. The 0.3 % of colchicines treating with 48 h did not change the number of chromosomes in two ecotypes (farmland ecotype and mining ecotype) of B. pilosa. The colchicines treatments increased the biomass, photosynthetic pigment content, Cd contents and Cd accumulation of post generation of B. pilosa compared with their respective control. For farmland ecotype of post generation of B. pilosa, the Cd accumulation amount in roots and shoots increased by 16.30% and 29.82%, respectively compared with the control; for mining ecotype of post generation of B. pilosa, the Cd accumulation amount in roots and shoots increased by 2.67% and 25.01%, respectively compared with the control. Therefore, the colchicines could promote the growth and Cd accumulation of post generation of B. pilosa.
