Abstract
Pyrotechnics are notorious source of heavy metal discharge to the environment. Nickel is one of the ubiquitous metal present in the pyrotechnic composition of firework industries. Therefore, nickel will enter easily to the organism by bio transfer mechanism. Percolation of nickel alters the reaction within the photosynthetic apparatus and oxygen evolving complex in plants. Phytoremediation of nickel is authoritative resilience of future and the limitation of photosynthetic system ought to be improved. Accordingly, phytoremediation requires enhancer for the prominent success to sustain and removal of nickel by plants from soil. Microfungal organisms are known bio-enhancer due to their metabolic profiles and their role in plant growth promotion. This study is aimed to determine the efficiency of nickel removal from fireworks contaminated soil of Sivakasi. Nickel uptake, accumulation and tolerance were investigated with seedlings of Gossypium hirsutum L. During nickel treatment, biomass and photosynthetic pigments got reduced with increasing concentration of nickel chloride and sugar, protein, anthocyanin, catalase and peroxidase contents were increased, the biomass, growth and biochemical characters will regain and the other biochemical parameter got reduced. After the addition of enhancer, plant develops mechanism such as accumulation of anthocyanin and enhanced activities of antioxidant enzymes to overcome the ill effects of the metal ion and G. hirsutum absorbed 39.05mg/L of nickel from the contaminated soil (42.03mg/L). Therefore, we claimed this could be a significant attempt as potential phytoremediation strategy for heavy metal removal. Our findings also support to improving economical niche by using commercial plant to brings metal free soil and safeguard our environment.
