摘要
Rhizobium inoculation has been widely applied to alleviate heavy metal (HM) stress in legumes grown in contaminated soils, but it has generated inconsistent results with regard to HM accumulation in plant tissues. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to assess the performance of Rhizobium inoculation for regulating HM in legumes and reveal the general influencing factors and processes. The meta-analysis showed that Rhizobium inoculation in legumes primarily increased the total HM uptake by stimulating plant biomass growth rather than HM phytoavailability. Inoculation had no significant effect on the average shoot HM concentration (p > 0.05); however, it significantly increased root HM uptake by 61 % and root HM concentration by 7 % (p < 0.05), indicating safe agricultural production while facilitating HM phytostabilisation. Inoculation decreased shoot HM concentrations and increased root HM uptake in Vicia, Medicago and Glycine, whereas it increased shoot HM concentrations in Sulla, Cicer and Vigna. The effects of inoculation on shoot biomass were suppressed by nitrogen fertiliser and native microorganisms, and the effect on shoot HM concentration was enhanced by high soil pH, organic matter content, and phosphorous content. Inoculation-boosted shoot nutrient concentration was positively correlated with increased shoot biomass, whereas the changes in pH and organic matter content were insufficient to significantly affect accumulation outcomes. Nitrogen content changes in the soil were positively correlated with changes in root HM concentration and uptake, whereas nitrogen translocation changes in the tissues were positively correlated with changes in HM translocation. Phosphorus solubilisation could improve HM phytoavailability at the expense of slight biomass promotion. These results suggest that the diverse growth-promoting characteristics of Rhizobia influence the trade-off between biomass-HM phytoavailability and HM translocation, impacting HM accumulation outcomes. Our findings can assist in optimising the utilisation of legume-Rhizobium systems in HM-contaminated soils. © 2024
