Cd speciation and biouptake-Effect of ligand type and Na competition
Hydroponically grown durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum, cv Napoleon) was used as model organism to study Cd accumulation under various experimental conditions. Potential of Na as competitive cation for Cd<2+> was explored at three different Na<,+> concentrations. Root Cd accumulation was reduced (P<0. 05) in plants exposed to CA and Na at Cd<2+>: Na<+>= 1:1 in both chloride and acetate buffered exposures. While chloro-complexation of Cd significantly (P<0. 05) enhanced root Cd in complete absence of Na. Root Cd accumulation was enhanced (P<0. 05) in plants exposed to Cd-acetate in presence of excess Na (~30 mmol/l of Na). Results reveal striking contrast in mechanism of counter ion activity in enhancing Cd uptake in presence of a competitive cation Na<+>.
