Abstract | A pot experiment was conducted to examine cadmium (Cd), zinc (Zn) and nickel (Ni) bioavailabilities in arid oasis agricultural soils. Celery (Apium graveolens) was selected as the tested plant. The chemical forms of the metals in soils were characterized by sequential extraction analysis technique. The results showed that in uncontaminated arid soils, Cd, Zn and Ni existed predominantly in the less available forms, associated to Fe-Mn oxides and residuals forms. Heavy metals addition in arid celery-cultivated soils significantly increased the concentration of the exchangeable and bound-to carbonate Cd forms, however the Fe-Mn oxides form of Cd decreased. Meanwhile, for Zn and Ni, the increase occurred in the bound-to-carbonate and bound-to Fe-Mn oxides forms, and the residuals forms of Zn and Ni decreased. When these metals were determined in plants, both shoots and roots, a greater concentration of Cd, Zn and Ni was found in celery, most of the metals being in roots. The contents of heavy metals in celery at low to high level metals treatments were higher than the tolerance limits of national standard of China, which would threaten human health. The relationship between the metals contents in plants and the different forms of metals in soils was evaluated through multiple linear regressions to estimate the heavy metals bioavailabilities. Different results were obtained, independent variables positively contributing to Cd, Zn and Ni bioavailabilities in soils were the bound-to-carbonate forms for celery roots. The bound-to Fe-Mn oxides, bound to organic matter and the exchangeable forms would contribute positively to the contents of Cd, Zn and Ni celery shoots, respectively. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
