Abstract (sommario):
Abstract New Caledonia is a global biodiversity hotspot known for its metal hyperaccumulator plants. X-ray fluorescence technology (XRF) has enabled non-destructive and quantitative determination of elemental concentrations in herbarium specimens from the ultramafic flora of the island. Specimens belonging to six major hyperaccumulator families (Cunoniaceae, Phyllanthaceae, Salicaceae, Sapotaceae, Oncothecaceae and Violaceae) and one to four specimens per species of the remaining ultramafic taxa in the herbarium were measured. XRF scanning included a total of c. 11 200 specimens from 35 orders, 96 families, 281 genera and 1484 species (1620 taxa) and covered 88.5% of the ultramafic flora. The study revealed the existence of 99 nickel hyperaccumulator taxa (65 known previously), 74 manganese hyperaccumulator taxa (11 known previously), eight cobalt hyperaccumulator taxa (two known previously) and four zinc hyperaccumulator taxa (none known previously). These results offer new insights into the phylogenetic diversity of hyperaccumulators in New Caledonia. The greatest diversity of nickel hyperaccumulators occur in a few major clades (Malphigiales and Oxalidales) and families (Phyllanthaceae, Salicaceae, Cunoniaceae). In contrast, manganese hyperaccumulation is phylogenetically scattered in the New Caledonian flora.

Abstract (sommario):
The greatest number of nickel (Ni)-hyperaccumulator plants belonging to the genus Alyssum originate from serpentine soils. They possess physiological mechanisms that enable them tolerate very high internal concentrations of Ni. The specificity of these traits has still not been fully clarified; however, by studying the interactions of different metals, some clues may be given. In the present study, the tolerance, uptake, accumulation and interactions of Ni and copper (Cu) were assessed in a range of Alyssum species. A. bracteatum (Harsin and Paveh populations) and A. inflatum were selected as Ni hyperaccumulators from western Iran. A. montanum and A. saxatile were selected as non-accumulators originating from the Mediterranean region, now being used as ornamental plants. Different concentrations of Ni (0, 100 and 250 µM for hyperaccumulators and 0, 10 and 25 µM for the non-accumulator plants), and Cu (0.5, 1 and 2.5 µM) were employed as treatments in a hydroponic growth experiment with a fully randomised factorial design. No tolerance to high concentrations of Cu was observed in any of the species tested. In the presence of Ni, an increased Cu concentration was observed in both roots and shoots of the Ni-hyperaccumulator plants, but not in the non-accumulators. Furthermore, no negative interaction was detected between Ni and Cu in metal uptake by roots, suggesting that different uptake mechanisms are involved. Stimulation of Cu uptake by Ni in the Ni hyperaccumulators hints that this particular feature may be among the characteristics that enable them to hyperaccumulate Ni, unlike their congeneric non-accumulators.

Abstract (sommario):
The soil–root interface is the micro-ecosystem where roots uptake metals. However, less than 10% of hyperaccumulators’ rhizosphere has been examined. The present study evaluated the root and shoot response to nickel in hyperaccumulator and non-hyperaccumulator species, through the analysis of root surface and biomass and the ecophysiological response of the related aboveground biomass. Ni-hyperaccumulators Alyssoides utriculata (L.) Medik. and Noccaea caerulescens (J. Presl and C. Presl) F.K. Mey. and non-hyperaccumulators Alyssum montanum L. and Thlaspi arvense L. were grown in pot on Ni-spiked soil (0–1000 mg Ni kg−1, total). Development of root surfaces was analysed with ImageJ; fresh and dry root biomass was determined. Photosynthetic efficiency was performed by analysing the fluorescence of chlorophyll a to estimate the plants’ physiological conditions at the end of the treatment. Hyperaccumulators did not show a Ni-dependent decrease in root surfaces and biomass (except Ni 1000 mg kg−1 for N. caerulescens). The non-hyperaccumulator A. montanum suffers metal stress which threatens plant development, while the excluder T. arvense exhibits a positive ecophysiological response to Ni. The analysis of the root system, as a component of the rhizosphere, help to clarify the response to soil nickel and plant development under metal stress for bioremediation purposes.

Abstract (sommario):
Phytomining is a currently developing biotechnology aiming to extract rare and precious metals from naturally enriched or polluted soils with the help of hyperaccumulator plants. On the territory of the Balkans, hyperaccumulating species mainly accumulate elements such as nickel, zinc, thallium, copper and arsenic. This paper provides an overview of the studied technologies around the world for the extraction of these elements from hyperaccumulator's biomass, as well as the areas of potential application of the obtained products. Phytomining has a potential for development in Serbia, and for this purpose it is necessary to utilitized available hyperaccumulators, as well as to investigate technologies for the extraction of metals from their biomass.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract Background and Aims Hybanthus austrocaledonicus (Violaceae) is a nickel (Ni) hyperaccumulator endemic to New Caledonia. One of the specimens stored at the local herbarium had a strip of bark with a remarkably green phloem tissue attached to the sheet containing over 4 wt% Ni. This study aimed to collect field samples from the original H. austrocaledonicus locality to confirm the nature of the green ‘nickel-rich phloem’ in this taxon and to systematically assess the occurrence of Ni hyperaccumulation in H. austrocaledonicus and Hybanthus caledonicus populations. Methods X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy scanning of all collections of the genus Hybanthus (236 specimens) was undertaken at the Herbarium of New Caledonia to reveal incidences of Ni accumulation in populations of H. austrocaledonicus and H. caledonicus. In parallel, micro-analytical investigations were performed via synchrotron X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM) and scanning electron microscopy with X-ray microanalysis (SEM-EDS). Key Results The extensive scanning demonstrated that Ni hyperaccumulation is not a characteristic common to all populations in the endemic Hybanthus species. Synchrotron XFM revealed that Ni was exclusively concentrated in the epidermal cells of the leaf blade and petiole, conforming with the majority of (tropical) Ni hyperaccumulator plants studied to date. SEM-EDS of freeze-dried and frozen-hydrated samples revealed the presence of dense solid deposits in the phloem bundles that contained >8 wt% nickel. Conclusions The occurrence of extremely Ni-rich green phloem tissues appears to be a characteristic feature of tropical Ni hyperaccumulator plants.

Abstract (sommario):
Serpentine soils are often characterised by high concentrations of heavy metals, high plant diversity and endemism, and, in some cases, the presence of plants that hyperaccumulate nickel (Ni). Nickel uptake by hyperaccumulator plants could potentially be affected by other heavy metals in serpentine soils, such as manganese (Mn), which competes for uptake at roots. The present study investigated interactions between Ni and Mn in metal uptake, translocation and storage in a serpentine-endemic Ni-hyperaccumulator plant, Alyssum bracteatum (Brassicaceae), native to western Iran. The results based on a factorial treatment of seedlings using Ni and Mn and elemental analyses showed that whole shoot and root Ni concentrations were inversely correlated with Mn in the growing medium. Likewise, whole shoot and root Mn concentrations were inversely correlated with Ni in the medium, suggesting competition between Ni and Mn for uptake at roots. No evidence was found for competition between Ni and Mn for translocation between the roots and shoot.

Abstract (sommario):
The Sudeten flora consists of some plants we can recognize as heavy metal accumulators. Between others there are: <em>Thlaspi caerulescens</em>, <em>Arabidopsis halleri</em>, <em>Armeria maritima</em> ssp. <em>halleri</em> s.l. and probably the endemic fern <em>Asplenium onopteris</em> var. <em>silesiaca</em>. The authors present the concentrations of some important heavy metals measured in aboveground plant dry weight. The highest concentration of zinc was 8220 ppm (<em>Thlaspi</em>), nickel - 3100 ppm (<em>Thlaspi</em>), lead - 83 ppm (<em>Armeria</em>), copper - 611 ppm (<em>Arabidopsis</em>) and cadmium - 28 ppm (<em>Thlaspi</em>). The concentrations depend rather on species or population specification than on ore deposit quality. There are no typical hyperaccumulator among plants we have examined, but some signs of hyperaccumulation of nickel, zinc and lead could be observed. There are no typical endemic taxa, only <em>Asplenium onopteris</em> var. <em>silesiaca</em> and <em>Armeria maritima</em> ssp. <em>halleri</em> may be recognized as neoendemic taxa, but still of unclear systematic position. During the study we tried to find out why some Sudeten vascular plants do not develop heavy metals hyperaccumulation and why they are rather latent hyperaccumulators. Finally, we suggest to protect some metallicolous areas in spite they are rather territories with low plant biodiversity.

Abstract (sommario):
Soil contamination with heavy metal(loid)s is a major environmental problem that requires effective and affordable remediation technologies. The utilisation of plants to remediate heavy metal(loid)s contaminated soils has attracted considerable interest as a low cost green remediation technology. The process is referred to as phytoremediation, and this versatile technology utilises plants to phytostabilise and/or phytoextract heavy metal(loid)s from contaminated soils, thereby effectively minimising their threat to ecosystem, human and animal health. Plants that can accumulate exceptionally high concentrations of heavy metal(loid)s into above-ground biomass are referred to as hyperaccumulators, and may be exploited in phytoremediation, geobotanical prospecting and/or phytomining of low-grade ore bodies. Despite the apparent tangible benefits of utilising phytoremediation techniques, a greater understanding is required to comprehend the ecophysiological aspects of species suitable for phytoremediation purposes. A screening study was instigated to assess phytoremediation potential of several fern species for soils contaminated with cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn). Hyperaccumulation was not observed in any of the studied species, and in general, species excluded heavy metal uptake by restricting their translocation into aboveground biomass. Nephrolepis cordifolia and Hypolepis muelleri were identified as possible candidates in phytostabilisation of Cu-, Pb-, Ni- or Zn-contaminated soils and Dennstaedtia davallioides appeared favourable for use in phytostabilisation of Cu- and Zn-contaminated soils. Conversely, Blechnum nudum, B. cartilagineum, Doodia aspera and Calochlaena dubia were least tolerant to most heavy metals and were classified as being least suitable for phytoremediation purposes Ensuing studies addressed the physiology of arsenic (As) hyperaccumulation in a lesser known hyperaccumulator, Pityrogramma calomelanos var. austroamericana. The phytoremediation potential of this species was compared with that of the well known As hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata. Arsenic concentration of 3,008 mg kg–1 dry weight (DW) occurred in P. calomelanos var. austroamericana fronds when exposed to 50 mg kg–1 As without visual symptoms of phytotoxicities. Conversely, P. vittata was able to hyperaccumulate 10,753 mg As kg–1 DW when exposed to 100 mg kg–1 As without the onset of phytotoxicities. In P. calomelanos var. austroamericana, As was readily translocated to fronds with concentrations 75 times greater in fronds than in roots. This species has the potential for use in phytoremediation of soils with As levels up to 50 mg kg–1. Localisation and spatial distribution of As in P. calomelanos var. austroamericana pinnule and stipe tissues was investigated using micro-proton induced X-ray emission spectrometry (µ-PIXE). Freeze-drying and freeze-substitution protocols (using tetrahydrofuran [THF] as a freeze-substitution medium) were compared to ascertain their usefulness in tissue preservation. Micro-PIXE results indicated that pinnule sections prepared by freeze-drying adequately preserved the spatial elemental distribution and tissue structure of pinnule samples. In pinnules, µ-PIXE results indicated higher As concentration than in stipe tissues, with concentrations of 3,700 and 1,600 mg As kg–1 DW, respectively. In pinnules, a clear pattern of cellular localisation was not resolved whereas vascular bundles in stipe tissues contained the highest As concentration (2,000 mg As kg–1 DW). Building on these µ-PIXE results, the chemical speciation of As in P. calomelanos var. austroamericana was determined using micro-focused X-ray fluorescence (µ-XRF) spectroscopy in conjunction with micro-focused X-ray absorption near edge structure (µ-XANES) spectroscopy. The results suggested that arsenate (AsV) absorbed by roots was reduced to arsenite (AsIII) in roots prior to transport through vascular tissues as AsV and AsIII. In pinnules, AsIII was the predominant species, presumably as aqueous-oxygen coordinated compounds. Linear least-squares combination fits of µ-XANES spectra showed AsIII as the predominant component in all tissues sampled. The results also revealed that sulphur containing thiolates may, in part sequester accumulated As. The final aspect of this thesis examined several ecophysiological strategies of Ni hyperaccumulation in Hybanthus floribundus subsp. floribundus, a native Australian perennial shrub species and promising candidate in phytoremediation of Ni-contaminated soils. Micro-PIXE analysis revealed that cellular structure in leaf tissues prepared by freeze-drying was adequately preserved as compared to THF freeze-substituted tissues. Elemental distribution maps of leaves showed that Ni was preferentially localised in the adaxial epidermal tissues and leaf margin, with concentration of 10,000 kg–1 DW in both regions. Nickel concentrations in stem tissues obtained by µ-PIXE analysis were lower than in the leaf tissues (1,800 mg kg–1 vs. 7,800 mg kg–1 DW, respectively), and there was no clear pattern of compartmentalisation across different anatomical regions. It is possible that storage of accumulated Ni in epidermal tissues may provide Ni tolerance to this species, and may further act as a deterrent against herbivory and pathogenic attack. In H. floribundus subsp. floribundus seeds, µ-PIXE analysis did not resolve a clear pattern of Ni compartmentalisation and suggests that Ni was able to move apoplastically within the seed tissues. The role of organic acids and free amino acids (low molecular weight ligands [LMW]) in Ni detoxification in H. floribundus subsp. floribundus were quantified using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). Nickel accumulation stimulated a significant increase in citric acid concentration in leaf extracts, and based on the molar ratios of Ni to citric acid (1.3:1–1.7:1), citric acid was sufficient to account for approximately 50% of the accumulated Ni. Glutamine, alanine and aspartic acid concentrations were also stimulated in response to Ni hyperaccumulation and accounted for up to 75% of the total free amino acid concentration in leaf extracts. Together, these LMW ligands may complex with accumulated Ni and contribute to its detoxification and storage in this hyperaccumulator species. Lastly, the hypothesis that hyperaccumulation of Ni in certain plants may act as an osmoticum under water stress (drought) was tested in context of H. floribundus subsp. floribundus. A 38% decline in water potential and a 68% decline in osmotic potential occurred between water stressed and unstressed plants, however, this was not matched by an increase in accumulated Ni. The results suggested that Ni was unlikely to play a role in osmotic adjustment in this species. Drought stressed plants exhibited a low water use efficiency which might be a conservative ecophysiological strategy enabling survival of this species in competitive water-limited environments.

Abstract (sommario):
L’agromine est une filière destinée à valoriser des métaux dispersés dans des sols ou autres matrices, à l’aide de plantes hyperaccumulatrices (HA). La première étape consiste à cultiver ces plantes pour obtenir des rendements élevés en métaux et la seconde, à produire des composés métalliques d’intérêt à partir de la biomasse. L’agromine a surtout été développée pour valoriser le nickel (Ni). Jusqu’à présent, la biomasse était brûlée pour concentrer le métal et éliminer les matières organiques. L’enjeu de cette recherche est de concevoir des procédés de récupération du Ni par extraction directe depuis la biomasse, sans brûler la plante. Il s’agit de comprendre les processus impliqués lors de l’extraction du Ni de la biomasse sèche à l’aide d’un solvant et déterminer les formes chimiques des espèces en solution. A partir de là seront mises en œuvre des opérations de séparation adaptées, pour isoler le Ni sous une forme intéressante pour des applications ultérieures. Les expériences de lixiviation à l’eau à 20 °C, menées avec deux HA contrastées, ont démontré qu’il était possible de transférer en solution jusqu’à 80% du Ni présent dans les tissus des plantes. Celui-ci est accompagné des ions majeurs et de composés organiques. L’analyse des composés et la modélisation des équilibres chimiques en solution ont montré que le Ni était complexé à plus de 95% par des ligands organiques, acides carboxyliques, porteurs du Ni dans la plante, ainsi que des complexants plus forts. A partir de ces résultats, des procédés de séparation ont été sélectionnés : la précipitation sélective et l’adsorption sur résine complexante. Ils ont permis de récupérer respectivement 75 et plus de 95% du nickel sous forme sulfure ou composé carboxylique. En revanche, la purification à l’aide de décanoate n’a pas permis d’isoler le Ni. Ainsi, ce travail a permis de mieux comprendre l’extraction du Ni directement à partir de plantes, la spéciation du Ni en solution multiconstituant en présence de ligands organiques, et de valoriser le nickel par des voies jusqu’alors inexplorées avec ce type de matière première
Agromining is a chain allowing the recovery of metals dispersed in soils or other matrices, using hyperaccumulator plants (HA). The first step is to grow these plants to achieve high yields of metals and the second to produce metal compounds of interest from the plant biomass. Agromining has mainly been developed to value nickel (Ni). Until now, biomass was burnt to concentrate the metal and remove organic matter. The challenge of this research is to design processes for Ni recovery by direct extraction from biomass, without burning the plant. It will allow a better understanding of the processes involved in the extraction of Ni from dry biomass using a solvent and the determination of the the speciation in the solution. Then, appropriate separation operations will be implemented to isolate the Ni in an interesting form for subsequent applications.Water leaching experiments, run at 20 ° C with two contrasted HAs, demonstrated that up to 80% of Ni could be transferred from the plant tissues to the solution. Ni is accompanied by major ions and organic compounds. The analysis of these compounds and the modeling of the chemical equilibria in solution showed that more than 95% of Ni was complexed by organic ligands, carboxylic acids (Ni carriers in the plant) as well as stronger complexing agents. From these results, separation processes were selected: selective precipitation and adsorption on complexing resin. They made it possible to recover respectively 75 and more than 95% of the nickel in sulphide or carboxylic compound forms. In contrast, purification with decanoate did not isolate the Ni.Thus, this work has made it possible to better understand the extraction of Ni directly from plants, the speciation of Ni in a multicomponent solution in the presence of organic ligands, and to valorize nickel by ways previously unexplored with this type of material

Les principaux objectifs étaient d'identifier et d'étudier quelques espèces de plantes hyperaccumulatrices de métaux au Mexique, et d'évaluer l'agronomie d'une de ces espèces avec des caractéristiques prometteuses pour l’agromine. Nous avons d'abord effectué des explorations dans trois régions ultramafiques riches en nickel (Ni) du centre et du sud du Mexique. Malgré la disponibilité du nickel dans le sol et les conditions climatiques, aucune hyperaccumulation de Ni n'a été trouvée dans ces régions. Une deuxième stratégie basée sur la phylogénie végétale comme outil de prédiction de l'hyperaccumulation des métaux a été suivie. Au total, dix espèces hyperaccumulatrices de métaux ont été identifiées au cours de cette recherche (Rubiaceae et Violaceae) dans des sols riches en Ni influencés par l'activité volcanique, dans le sud-est du Mexique ; la majorité d’entre elles n’était pas identifiée comme hyperaccumulatrices. Nos études ont révélé deux des hypernickelophores les plus puissants détectés jusqu'à présent (>4% wt Ni) et deux nouveaux genres hyperaccumulateurs de nickel (Orthion et Mayanaea). Une attention particulière a été accordée à l'hypernickelophore Blepharidium guatemalense. Le phloème des feuilles, des racines, des tiges et des pétioles de cette plante est très riche en Ni, ce qui suggère un mécanisme de redistribution via le phloème. Différentes pratiques agronomiques ont été testées pour cette plante. La fertilisation inorganique a fortement augmenté l'absorption du Ni sans modifier la croissance ou la biomasse de la plante, tandis que la fertilisation organique a augmenté la biomasse de la plante avec un effet négligeable sur les concentrations de Ni dans les parties aériennes. Une parcelle avec une culture de 5 ans, qui a ensuite été récolté deux fois par an, produit le rendement maximal en Ni de 142 kg ha⁻¹ an⁻¹. Blepharidium guatemalense est un candidat de choix pour l'agromine du Ni en raison de ses caractéristiques appréciables : absorption extrêmement efficace du Ni, production élevée de biomasse, taux de croissance rapide, et facilité de reproduction
Agromining technology involves the recovery of strategic metals from metalliferous soils through the cultivation of metal(loid) hyperaccumulator plants. The impetus of this research was to evaluate the potential of Mexican plant resources for the future development of agromining. The main objectives were then to identify and to study some metal hyperaccumulator plant species in Mexico, and to assess the agronomy of one promising “metal crop” for agromining. We first undertook field explorations in three nickel-rich ultramafic regions of central and southern Mexico. Despite the availability of soil and climatic conditions, no nickel (Ni) hyperaccumulation was found in any of these regions. A second strategy based on plant phylogeny as a prediction tool for metal hyperaccumulation was followed. In total, ten plant metal hyperaccumulator species were identified during this research (Rubiaceae and Violaceae) in Ni-enriched soils influenced by volcanic activity in Southeastern Mexico; most of them were priorly unknown. Our studies revealed two of the strongest hypernickelophores reported so far (>4%wt Ni) and two new Ni hyperaccumulator genera (Orthion and Mayanaea). Special focus was given to the hypernickelophore tree Blepharidium guatemalense. The phloem on leaves, roots, stems and petioles of this plant are the richest in Ni suggesting an unusual re-distribution mechanism via the phloem. Different agronomic practices were tested for this plant. Synthetic fertilization strongly increased nickel uptake without any change in plant growth or biomass, whereas organic fertilization enhanced plant shoot biomass with a negligible effect on foliar Ni concentrations. A 5-year-old stand which was subsequently harvested twice per year produced the maximum Ni yield tree⁻¹ yr⁻¹, with an estimated total nickel yield of 142 kg ha⁻¹ yr⁻¹. Blepharidium guatemalense is a prime candidate for Ni agromining on the account of its valuable traits: extremely efficient Ni uptake, high biomass production, fast growth rate, and easy to reproduce

Abstract (sommario):
Les plantes hyperaccumulatrices peuvent accumuler des concentrations extraordinaires de métaux dans leurs parties aériennes (e.g. Ni, Zn et Cd). Cette thèse a été entreprise afin d’élucider : 1) comment le Ni est absorbé par les racines des hyperaccumulateurs, et 2) comment il circule dans les différents organes via le xylème et le phloème. Les travaux ont utilisé des cultures hydroponiques avec l’hyperaccumulateur de Ni et Zn Noccaea caerulescens en présence de concentrations faibles et élevées de Ni et Zn et en interaction avec Fe et Co ; des analyses isotopiques et d’expression de gènes ont été conduites. Les résultats ont montré que l’hyperaccumulateur N. caerulescens possède un système de transport du Ni à faible affinité et à haute efficacité. L’absorption du Ni semble impliquer principalement les transporteurs de Zn et Fe. Le transport par le xylème est la principale voie d'accumulation du Ni dans les jeunes feuilles et les feuilles âgées. Mais la translocation par le phloème est aussi une source importante de Ni pour les jeunes feuilles. Dans le phloème, le Ni est principalement chélaté par des acides organiques, de type malate. La thèse ouvre des perspectives pour l’optimisation des procédés de phytoextraction et d’agromine des sols contaminés
Hyperaccumulating plants are capable of accumulating extraordinary concentrations of heavy metals, e.g. Ni, Zn and Cd, in their shoots. This thesis was conducted to assess: 1) how roots of hyperaccumulators absorb Ni, and 2) how Ni circulates in different organs via xylem and phloem. Methods used were hydroponic cultures with the Ni/Zn hyperaccumulator Noccaea caerulescens in the presence of low and high Ni and Zn solutions, and in competition with Fe, Co, and Rb and Sr. Isotope fractionation in the plant, and gene expression of the Zn transporter ZIP10 and the Fe transporter IRT1 were studied. Results showed that the hyperaccumulator N. caerulescens takes up Ni mainly via low-affinity transport system, which seemed to be Zn and Fe transporters. Xylem transport is the main source for Ni accumulation in both young and old leaves, while phloem translocation also acts as an important source for young leaves. Ni is enriched in phloem sap and mainly chelated by organic acids especially malate during phloem translocation

Abstract (sommario):
Phylogenetic studies are providing powerful new insights into the evolution of complex traits. Metal hyperaccumulation is an unusual and complex physiological trait found in about 500 plant species and is associated with an exceptionally high degree of tolerance of metalliferous soils. Alyssum L. (Brassicaceae) is the largest known hyperaccumulator genus, comprising approximately 188 species distributed throughout the Mediterranean region and south-west Asia. Approximately one-quarter of these are largely restricted to areas of serpentine soils and have the ability to accumulate nickel to high concentrations in shoot tissue. This genus provides a good example in which to study the origins of a complex physiological trait, but its phylogeny is currently poorly understood. To produce a well-resolved phylogenetic tree to investigate the number and timing of origins of nickel hyperaccumulation within Alyssum, DNA sequences were generated for four chloroplast regions (matK, rps16–trnK, trnD–T and trnL–F) from 170 of 255 species in the tribe Alysseae. Additional sequencing was carried out for the chloroplast genes ndhF and rbcL and the nuclear gene PHYA. A Bayesian analysis employing a relaxed uncorrelated lognormal molecular clock and multiple fossil-age calibration points was carried out to reconstruct a time-calibrated phylogeny of this tribe using appropriate outgroups. Optimization of the nickel hyperaccumulation trait onto the resulting phylogenetic tree suggests that nickel hyperaccumulation arose twice in the Alysseae in the late Miocene/early Pliocene: 3.3–8.3 Mya in Alyssum and 6.3–8.8 Mya in Bornmuellera. The single origin in Alyssum is strongly associated with a significant acceleration in net species diversification rate, suggesting the ability to hyperaccumulate nickel could have provided a key evolutionary innovation facilitating rapid range expansion and subsequent species diversification. The scattered distribution of nickel hyperaccumulators across small island-like patches of serpentine soil suggests that allopatric speciation may have driven rapid diversification in this clade.

Abstract (sommario):
Certaines plantes, dites hyperaccumulatrices, ont la capacité de se développer sur des sols riches en métaux et d’accumuler ces métaux à des concentrations élevées. L’incinération de la biomasse produit des cendres qui contiennent de 10 à 25% en masse de Ni. Ce travail s’inscrit dans la continuité d’une recherche menée par l’équipe depuis plusieurs années, qui a donné lieu notamment à un brevet sur la production du sel double sulfate de nickel et d’ammonium hexahydraté (ANSH) à partir de la biomasse d’Alyssum murale. Le manuscrit comprend d’abord une synthèse bibliographique sur la phytomine, allant des hyperaccumulateurs aux procédés de valorisation, essentiellement centrée sur le nickel. Ensuite, ont été comparées quinze plantes hyperaccumulatrices (des genres Alyssum, Leptoplax et Bornmuellera) provenant d’Albanie ou de Grèce, en vue de leur application pour la phytomine. Les teneurs en nickel ont été mesurées dans les différents organes des plantes et dans les cendres obtenues par combustion. Les trois genres ont de l’intérêt pour l’application, les plantes contiennent 1 à 3% en masse de nickel et les cendres 15 à 20 %. Le procédé hydrométallurgique de production d’ANSH a été étudié étape par étape en vue d’optimiser chaque étape pour produire un sel très pur tout en économisant matière et énergie et minimisant la production d’effluents et de déchets. Ce travail a conduit à l’amélioration du procédé de départ. Enfin, de nouvelles pistes ont été proposées pour conduire à de nouveaux procédés et produits du nickel. Les résultats obtenus et la dynamique actuelle autour de la phytomine montrent l’intérêt de cette approche et annoncent son développement imminent
Some plants, known as hyperaccumulators, are able to develop on metal containing soils and to accumulate these metals at high concentrations in shoots. Biomass incineration leads to ash containing 10 to 25 wt % nickels, greater than in some mineral ores. This work follows a research that has been carried out by the team for several years, which has resulted in a patent on the hydrometallurgical production of the double salt ammonium and nickel hexahydrate (ANSH) from the biomass of Alyssum murale. It aims at improving the synthesis method of this salt in order to upscale it at the pilot scale and explore new methods leading to new products. The manuscript begins with a bibliographic review on phytomining from hyperaccumulators to metal recycling processes, essentially focused on nickel. Then ca 15 hyperaccumulator plants (genus Alyssum, Leptoplax and Bornmuellera) collected in Greece or Albania have been compared, in the objective of phytomining. Nickel concentrations were measured in the plant organs and in the ashes after combustion. The three types of plants are of great interest for the technology, they contain 1 to 3 wt % of nickel and the ashes 15 to 20%. The hydrometallurgical process of ANSH production was investigated step by step to optimize each step to produce a salt of high purity, to decrease materials and energy consumption and to minimize effluent and waste production. The process was thus improved. Eventually, new ideas have been tested for new processes and nickel products. The obtained results and the current dynamics prove the interest of phytomining and announce its imminent development

Abstract (sommario):
Although mining has over the centuries improved the livelihoods and economies of many countries, the results have not spared the environment’s luxurious legacy. Acid mine drainage contaminated sites with heavy metals that affect negatively and positively the macrophytes plants that grow on those sites. Accumulated elements by macrophytes planted on artificial wetlands portray the relative bioconcentration and translocation factors. Various elements were measured in the sediment, water, and macrophytes from the sampled sites and the results indicate that concentrations accumulated by plants play a significant role in biological and chemical processes in soil-water-plant relations. When comparing the drinking water quality standards by international organizations that were used as a guideline for the comparisons of elements concentration levels of elements found in water, Iron (Fe), Nickel (Ni), Manganese (Mn), and Copper (Cu) were found to be above the international water quality standards for drinking water and their average concentrations were 2230, 282, 5950, and 14,080 μg/l respectively. The sequence of elements accumulation by the macrophytes differed per plant and each of the three macrophytes plants was a hyperaccumulator of a certain element.
