Microplastic stress in plants: effects on plant growth and their remediations

Frontiers in Plant Science, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 14

Microplastic (MP) pollution is becoming a global problem due to the resilience, long-term persistence, and robustness of MPs in different ecosystems. In terrestrial ecosystems, plants are exposed MP stress, thereby affecting overall plant growth development. This review article has critically analyzed effects stress plants. We found that stress-induced reduction physical accompanied by two complementary effects: (i) blockage pores seed coat or roots alter water nutrient uptake, (ii) induction drought increased soil cracking MPs. Nonetheless, physiological under four excessive production ROS, alteration leaf root ionome, (iii) impaired hormonal regulation, (iv) decline chlorophyll photosynthesis. Considering that, we suggested targeting redox regulatory mechanisms could be beneficial improving tolerance plants; however, antioxidant activities highly dependent on species, tissue, type, dose. also indirectly reduces altering productivity. However, MP-induced negative vary presence surface functional groups particle sizes. end, utilization agronomic approaches, including application regulators, biochar, replacing plastic mulch with crop residues, diversification, biological degradation, ameliorate The efficiency these methods MP-type-specific dose-dependent.

Microplastics (MPs) contamination presents a significant global environmental challenge, with its potential to influence soil carbon (C) dynamics being crucial aspect for understanding C changes and cycling. This meta-analysis synthesizes data from 110 peer-reviewed publications elucidate the directional, magnitude, driving effects of MPs exposure on globally. We evaluated impacts characteristics (including type, biodegradability, size, concentration), properties (initial pH organic [SOC]), experimental conditions (such as duration plant presence) various components. Key findings included promotion SOC, dissolved C, microbial biomass root following addition soils, while net photosynthetic rate was reduced. No were observed respiration shoot biomass. The study highlights that concentration, along other attributes, critically influences responses. Our results demonstrate both nature environment interact shape cycling, providing comprehensive insights guiding strategies mitigating impact MPs.

Can microplastics threaten plant productivity and fruit quality? Insights from Micro-Tom and Micro-PET/PVC

Solanum lycopersicum L., a crop grown worldwide with high nutritional value for the human diet, was used to test impact of microplastics on plant growth, productivity, and fruit quality. Two most represented in soils, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) polyvinyl chloride (PVC), were tested. Plants pots an environmentally realistic concentration and, during whole life cycle, photosynthetic parameters, number flowers fruits monitored. At end cultivation, biometry ionome evaluated, along production Both pollutants had negligible effects shoot traits, only PVC causing significant reduction fresh weight. Despite apparent low or no toxicity vegetative stage, both decreased case PVC, also their weights. The plastic polymer-induced decline coupled wide variations ionome, marked increases Ni Cd. By contrast there nutritionally valuable lycopene, total soluble solids, phenols. Altogether, our results reveal that can not limit productivity but negatively quality enhance food safety hazards, thus raising concerns potential health risks humans.
