Improving the efficacy of phytoextraction is critical for its successful application in metal contaminated soils.Mineral nutrition affects plant growth and metal absorption and subsequently the accumulation of heavy metal through hyper-accumulator plants.This study assessed the effects of di-hydrogen phosphates(KH2PO4,Ca(H2PO4)2,NaH2PO4 and NH4H2PO4)application at three levels(22,88 and 352 mg P/kg soil)on Sedum alfredii growth and metal uptake by three consecutive harvests on aged and Zn/Cd combined contaminated paddy soil.The addition of phosphates(P)significantly increased the amount of Zn taken up by S.alfredii due to increased shoot Zn concentration and dry matter yield(DMY)(P ＜ 0.05).The highest phytoextraction of Zn and Cd was observed in KH2PO4 and NH4H2PO4 treatment at 352 mg P/kg soil.The amount of Zn removed by phytoextraction increased in the order of 1st clipping ＜ 2nd clipping ＜ 3rd clipping,and for Cd extraction the order was 2nd clipping ＜ 1st clipping ＜ 3rd clipping.These results indicate that the application of P fertilizers coupled with multiple cuttings can enhance the removal of Zn and Cd from contaminated soils by S.alfredii,thus shortening the time needed for accomplishing remediation goals.
