JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 336:117730. [PMID: 36921476 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.117730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2022] [Revised: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Soil and water pollution, rapid industrialization, contaminated irrigation-water, increased waste-production and surge in agricultural land leads to the accumulation of Heavy Metals (HM) with time. HM contamination has raised concern over the past years and new remediation strategies are required to deal with it. HM-contaminated soil is often used for the production of food, which makes a gateway for toxic metals into the food-chain, thereby affecting food security and human health. To avoid HM-toxicity, decontamination of important resources is essential. Therefore, exploring phytoremediation for the removal, decomposition and detoxification of hazardous metals from HM-contaminated sites is of great significance. Hyper-accumulator plants can efficiently remove HMs. However, despite many hyper-accumulator plant species, there is a research gap in the studies of phytotechnology. Hence biotechnological efforts advocating omics studies i.e. genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and phenomics are in order, the purpose being to select and enhance a plant's potential for the process of phytoremediation to be more effective. There is a need to study newly developed high-efficiency hyper-accumulator plants as HM-decontaminator candidates for phytoremediation and phytomining. Therefore, this review focuses on various strategies and bio-technological methods for the removal of HM contaminants from sites, with emphasis on the advancement of phytoremediation, along with applications in cleaning up various toxic pollutants.

Current advances in the molecular regulation of abiotic stress tolerance in sorghum via transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic approaches. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1147328. [PMID: 37235010 PMCID: PMC10206308 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2023.1147328] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench), a monocot C4 crop, is an important staple crop for many countries in arid and semi-arid regions worldwide. Because sorghum has outstanding tolerance and adaptability to a variety of abiotic stresses, including drought, salt, and alkaline, and heavy metal stressors, it is valuable research material for better understanding the molecular mechanisms of stress tolerance in crops and for mining new genes for their genetic improvement of abiotic stress tolerance. Here, we compile recent progress achieved using physiological, transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome approaches; discuss the similarities and differences in how sorghum responds to differing stresses; and summarize the candidate genes involved in the process of responding to and regulating abiotic stresses. More importantly, we exemplify the differences between combined stresses and a single stress, emphasizing the necessity to strengthen future studies regarding the molecular responses and mechanisms of combined abiotic stresses, which has greater practical significance for food security. Our review lays a foundation for future functional studies of stress-tolerance-related genes and provides new insights into the molecular breeding of stress-tolerant sorghum genotypes, as well as listing a catalog of candidate genes for improving the stress tolerance for other key monocot crops, such as maize, rice, and sugarcane.

Abstract
AbstractAs an energy crop, sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) receives increasing attention for phytoremediation and biofuels production due to its good stress tolerance and high biomass with low input requirements. Sweet sorghum possesses wide adaptability, which also has high tolerances to poor soil conditions and drought. Its rapid growth with the large storage of fermentable saccharides in the stalks offers considerable scope for bioethanol production. Additionally, sweet sorghum has heavy metal tolerance and the ability to remove cadmium (Cd) in particular. Therefore, sweet sorghum has great potential to build a sustainable phytoremediation system for Cd-polluted soil remediation and simultaneous ethanol production. To implement this strategy, further efforts are in demand for sweet sorghum in terms of screening superior varieties, improving phytoremediation capacity, and efficient bioethanol production. In this review, current research advances of sweet sorghum including agronomic requirements, phytoremediation of Cd pollution, bioethanol production, and breeding are discussed. Furthermore, crucial problems for future utilization of sweet sorghum stalks after phytoremediation are combed.
