Abstract

The mechanisms of intercropping increasing plant biomass, cadmium accumulation, and organic acids secreted in rhizosphere soil are still unclear. Oilseed rape and intercrops were grown in boxes separated either with no barrier between the compartments or by a nylon mesh barrier (37 μm) to license partial root interaction, or a solid barrier to stop any root interactions. Two intercropping systems (oilseed rape-faba bean and oilseed rape-ryegrass) were carried out in soil with Cd content of 5 mg/kg. The intermingling of roots between oilseed rape and faba bean enhanced the biomass of oilseed rape. However, the biomass was negatively affected implying the higher nutrient apportionment to the ryegrass than oilseed rape. Oilseed rape intercropping with both faba bean and ryegrass played a positive role in the shoot Cd concentration of oilseed rape. The intermingling of roots played a positive role in the citric and malic acids when intercropping with faba bean. A remarkable increase in water-soluble Cd and DTPA-Cd content was observed during oilseed rape-faba bean complete root interaction treatment, up to 175.00% and 46.65%, respectively, which compare with the monoculture treatment. In both systems, the translocation factor values were higher for oilseed rape (O-F system) than for the other test plants and were always >1. Thus the Cd removal potential of oilseed rape can be further improved in the future by optimizing agronomic practices and intercropping with faba bean.
