Because of its toxicity to animals, and humans cadmium (Cd) is an environmentally important heavy.Metal. Consequently researchers are, interested in using hyperaccumulator and accumulator plants to.Decontaminate Cd polluted soils. To investigate Cd tolerance uptake and, accumulation by Amaranthus.Hybridus L, Cd concentration gradients were applied to a soil (at rates of 0 30 60,,,,,, 90 120 150 and180mgkg − 1) and hydroponics solutions (at rates of 0 5 10 15,,,,,, 20 30 and 40mgL − 1) following a field survey.A. Hybridus grew normally at added Cd concentrations < = 90mgkg − 1 and < = 20mgL − 1 in the soil culture.And in the, hydroponics solutions respectively. In the hydroponics solutions peroxidase activity, showed.A quadratic relationship and catalase activity changed irregularly with increasing Cd concentrations. The.Highest Cd concentration and accumulation in shoots were 241.56mgkg − 1 and 1006.95g pot − 1 in the.Soil, culture and 354.56mgkg − 1 and 668.42g pot − 1 in the hydroponics experiment. Bioconcentration.Factors in soil culture and hydroponics solutions were 0.58 - 1.22 and 5.18 - 17.55 and translocation, factors.Were 0.64 - 1.50 and 0.33 - 0.92 respectively. A. Hybridus, has potential phytoremediation capability.In Cd polluted soils.
