| Popis: | Cadmium (Cd) contamination of crop plants has aroused a worldwide concern because of the threats posed to human health through accumulation in the food chains. Selenium (Se) can alleviate the Cd-induced phytotoxicity, but the relevant underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Therefore, with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and rice (Oryza sativa L.) chosen as the target plants in this study, the effects of selenite or selenate on Cd accumulation and subcellular distribution were investigated through greenhouse hydroponic experiments; and simultaneously, the effects of pre-Se treatment with selenite or selenate on Cd accumulation and root-to-shoot translocation in the studied plants were also included. Results showed the addition of Se slightly changed the Cd content in plant roots in a time-dependent manner; however, with the obvious decreasing trend on the Cd transfer factor (TF), its content in plant shoots was significantly reduced by selenite or selenate in a plant species-dependent manner. At 48 h of exposure, the supplementation of selenite and selenate significantly decreased the Cd content by 40.4% and 38.0% in wheat shoots, and by 72.2% and 40.9% in rice shoots, respectively. Additionally, the order of Cd proportion distributed to the different subcellular fractions of plant tissues was as follows: cell wall > soluble cytosol > organelle, irrespective of the Se treatments or the plant species. However, selenate increased the Cd percentage in soluble cytosol of wheat shoots, while selenite increased that percentage in the cell wall of rice shoots; and the Cd proportion in soluble cytosol of the studied plant roots was significantly enhanced owing to selenite or selenate addition. Moreover, similar to the co-application, the pre-Se treatment with inorganic Se also reduced the Cd accumulation and translocation both in wheat and rice. Our results proved that the inorganic Se could decline the Cd accumulation and translocation in the crop plants, although selenite was found more effective than selenate regarding such effects. |
