Experiments with excised mycelium of several Glomus spp. with different histories of exposure to heavy metals were carried out to measure their capacities to bind Cd and Zn. Cd sorption was followed for up to 6 h of incubation to determine its time course relationships. Controls treated with a metabolic inhibitor were included to evaluate whether sorption was due to active uptake or passive adsorption. The effect of ion competition (effects of Ca or Zn on Cd sorption) and general measurements of cation exchange capacity (CEC) of roots and hyphae were also performed. The results showed that AM mycelium has a high metal sorption capacity relative to other microorganisms, and a CEC comparable to other fungi. Metal sorption was rapid (< 30 min) and appeared mainly to be due to passive adsorption. Adsorption was highest in a metal-tolerant G. mosseae isolate and intermediate for a fungus isolated from a soil treated with metal-contaminated sludge. The former adsorbed up to 0.5 mg Cd per mg dry biomass, which was three times the binding capacity of non-tolerant fungi, and more than 10 times higher than reported values for, e.g., the commonly used biosorption organism Rhizopus arrhizus. The implications of these results for AM involvement in plant protection against excess heavy metal uptake are discussed.
