Abstract

The pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of applying the hyperaccumulator plants (Bidens pilosa, Youngia erythrocarpa, Solanum photeinocarpum and Galinsoga parviflora) straw into soil on growth and cadmium (Cd) accumulation of Brassica chinensis. Compared with the control, applying hyperaccumulator straw decreased the root biomass, shoot biomass, and photosynthetic pigment contents of B. chinensis. The hyperaccumulator straw also decreased the Cd contents in roots and shoots of B. chinensis, and the orders of that were ranked as control > applying B. pilosa straw > applying G. parviflora straw > applying Y. erythrocarpa staw > applying S. photeinocarpum straw. Therefore, applying hyperaccumulator straw could decrease the Cd uptake of B. chinensis, and the straw of S. photeinocarpum is the best option.
