This study analyzed the anatomical characteristics of roots of three Salix clones treated with different concentrations of cadmium and assessed their potential application in phytostabilization of polluted soils. The results showed that certain anatomical parameters and hydraulic characteristics of the roots were significantly affected by cadmium pollution. These characteristics can be used to effectively evaluate and select suitable Salix clones for remediation of cadmium-contaminated sites.
An anatomical study of adventitious roots of three Salix clones, 'B-44', 'SV068' and 'SM4041', treated with 3 and 6 mg Cd kg(-1) dry weight in soil was performed in a greenhouse experiment. The aim was to analyze the anatomical characteristics of roots in response to pollution by cadmium and to assess the potential application of anatomical and hydraulic characteristics in the selection of the most suitable Salix clones for phytostabilization of pollutants in soils. Anatomical parameters measured in this study included root cross-sectional area, root diameter, the proportion of periderm, secondary phloem (cortex) and wood (secondary and primary xylem), and parameters of the vessels (lumen area, diameter and frequency). Based on the measurements of individual vessel lumens and the number of vessels, the theoretical hydraulic conductivity (k(h)) of roots was calculated. The effects of applied Cd concentrations on root traits were studied in clones and control plants. Following treatments with both Cd concentrations, plants of clone 'B-44' had the highest values of most parameters and significantly higher k(h) in comparison with control samples due to the significantly larger root cross-sectional area and lumen area of vessels. It was concluded that these characteristics can serve for effective evaluation and selection of studied clones for remediation of sites contaminated with cadmium.
