The study found that while graphene oxide (GO) reduced the accumulation of Cd in rice seedlings, it had adverse effects on plant growth under co-contamination conditions with Cd. Therefore, the impacts of GO on crop production, both positive and negative, should be a concern.
The extensive use of graphene oxide (GO) results in its inevitable entry into the environment, raising risks to the environment, especially the ecological risks when coexisting with other contaminants. Nevertheless, how GO affects the biological behavior of Cd in plants remains poorly understood. Here, we report that the transcript levels of Cd transporters, including OsIRT1, OsIRT2, OsNramp1, OsNramp5, and OsHMA2, were decreased by 56-96% in Cd-stressed rice seedlings with exposure to 400 mg L-1 GO compared with those without GO exposure. The in situ non-invasive microelectrodes test revealed that GO clearly reduced the net Cd influx of rice roots. Thus, GO exposure decreased the level of Cd in rice seedlings by approximately 60%, compared with the GO-free condition. However, the analyses of biomass, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters and Evans blue staining, indicated that GO had adverse effects on the robustness of plants under the Cd co-contaminated condition. Taken together, although GO reduced the accumulation of Cd in rice seedlings, it still negatively affected plant growth. Therefore, the positive and negative impacts of GO on crop production are of concern. Our findings provide new information for establishing a wider phytotoxicity evaluation system for the safe manufacture and use of GO.
