Phytoremediation of Environmental Matrices Contaminated with Photosystem II-Inhibiting Herbicides
Original language description
Excessive use of agrochemicals, including photosystem II (PS II)-inhibiting herbicides, especially after 1950, resulted in significant contamination of environmental matrices. Although some of these photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicides, including atrazine or simazine, have been banned in many countries due to their endocrine disrupting activities, their residues from agricultural field runoff persist mainly in sediments and can be released in aquatic environments where they can adversely affect non-target species. Phytoremediation is an inexpensive environmentally friendly method that uses diverse types of plants to decontaminate soils and aquatic ecosystems from inorganic and organic contaminants. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview focused on the phytoremediation of substrates contaminated with PS II-inhibiting herbicides using grasses, aquatic plants, seaweeds and seagrasses, algae and cyanobacteria, woody species, crops, and transgenic plants. The mechanism of action of PS II-inhibiting herbicides and the development of plant resistance to these herbicides are described. The beneficial impact of microbial species on the degradation of herbicides by microbial species in the rhizosphere is discussed, and the removal of herbicides from the soil using electrokinetic-assisted phytoremediation is briefly mentioned.
