Biomass and contaminant accumulation and partitioning in plants determine the harvest stage for optimum contaminant uptake during phytoremediation of municipal biosolids. This wetland microcosm bioassay characterized accumulation and partitioning of biomass, nutrients (N and P), and trace elements (Zn, Cu, Cr, and Cd) in cattail (Typha latifolia L.) in a growth room. Four cattail seedlings were...

The transport of sediment in regions with vegetation plays an important role aquatic ecosystems and landform evolution river deltas. In this study, flow parameters suspended concentration (SSC) within emergent canopy real plant morphology (Typha latifolia) were measured a laboratory channel. T. latifolia is common marsh species multiple thin leaves emerging from tight bundle (culm) at the bed. ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cables composed of long, non-lignified fibre cells enclosed in a cover of much shorter thin-walled, crystal-containing cells traverse the air chambers (lacunae) in leaves of the taller species of Typha. The non-lignified fibre cables are anchored in diaphragms composed of stellate cells of aerenchyma tissue that segment the long air chambers into smaller compartments. Althou...

The role of nutrient availability in the decay of Typha latifolia and Cladium jamaicense litter and associated microbial responses were studied under controlled experimental conditions. The experimental setup consisted of three 14 m mesocosms: (i) an experimentally enriched (N&P) mesocosm containing organic soil, (ii) a mesocosm with organic soil but no external enrichment, and (iii) a mesocosm...

The article presents data on the study of effect technogenically polluted wastewater digital biomass and NDVI parameters phytoremediants. Analysis plant growth development was carried out Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud. (obtained by in vitro method), Typha angustifolia L. T. latifolia from seeds). All species were grown combination with various microorganisms under influence wastewa...
