Seed Emergence of Fourwing [Atriplex canescens] for Lead Photostabilization

Abstract

Phytostabilization is the alternative for the lead removal in soil, with the effect of stabilizing bushes and mycorrhizae inoculated, that immobilize this one in the rhizosphere by adsorption. Mycorrhized phytostabilizing plants can be used for recovery tailings mining areas. The symbiosis between stabilizing plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi works in the immobilization of lead in the roots. Funneliformis mosseae is the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi with the highest tolerance to lead. Atriplex canescens Pursh, Nutt., has phytostabilizing attributes that make it ideal for restoration. Its establishment has been available in soils with lead concentrations. Atriplex canescens Pursh, Nutt., of artificial seeding, could emerge in adverse conditions and could be becoming with the inoculation of the seed with Funneliformis mosseae. In this work, that will be used for the lead phytostabilization in tailings mining areas added with zeolitic and organic soil, under greenhouse treatment. Therefore, the main objective was evaluating the initial seed emergence and the Funneliformis mosseae mycorrhizae effect in Atriplex canescens Pursh, Nutt., and the initial seed emergence treatments effect.
