The effect of decapitation on enhancing plant growth and Cd accumulation in Celosia argentea Linn. was evaluated using a pot experiment. Decapitation significantly enhanced the growth of C. argentea. The numbers of branch and leaf in the decapitated plants (DP) were significantly higher than those in undecapitated plants (UDP, p < 0.05). Decapitation increased the biomass by 75%-105% for roots, 108%-152% for stems, and 80%-107% for leaves. Although the transpiration and photosynthesis rates were not significantly different between DP and UPD, decapitation significantly increased the total leaf area and total transpiration per plant (p < 0.05). The higher total transpiration per plant resulted in a higher leaf Cd concentration in DP. DP accumulated Cd in shoots (197, 275, and 425 μg plant) that were 2.5-2.8 times higher than UDP (78, 108, and 152 μg plant), with the soils containing 1, 5, and 10 mg kg Cd. Results suggested that decapitation is a novel and convenient method to improve the phytoextraction efficiency of C. argentea in Cd contaminated soils.
斩首对银鸡冠花(Celosia argentea Linn.)生长和 Cd 积累的影响采用盆栽实验进行了评估。斩首显著促进了银鸡冠花的生长。斩首植物(DP)的分枝和叶片数明显高于未斩首植物(UDP,p<0.05)。斩首使根系生物量增加了 75%-105%,茎部增加了 108%-152%,叶片增加了 80%-107%。尽管 DP 和 UDP 之间的蒸腾速率和光合速率没有显著差异,但斩首显著增加了每株植物的总叶面积和总蒸腾量(p<0.05)。较高的总蒸腾量导致 DP 中叶片 Cd 浓度较高。DP 在地上部分(275 和 425μg 株)中积累的 Cd 是 UDP(78、108 和 152μg 株)的 2.5-2.8 倍,土壤中 Cd 含量分别为 1、5 和 10mgkg。结果表明,斩首是提高 Cd 污染土壤中银鸡冠花植物修复效率的一种新颖而便捷的方法。
