Organic fertilizer amendment increases methylmercury accumulation in rice plants.

Abstract:

:Rice grains are a methylmercury (MeHg) intake route for humans, especially in certain mercury (Hg)-contaminated areas. For rice plant growth, animal manure is commonly used as an organic fertilizer; however, its role in the formation of MeHg in paddy soils remains poorly understood. The aims of this study were thus to explore 1) the effect of chicken manure (CH) and cow manure (CO) addition on the production of soil MeHg and the accumulation of MeHg in rice plants and 2) the mechanism by which CH and CO addition affect the bioaccumulation of MeHg in grains. A pot experiment with different levels of CH and CO was carried out with newly deposited Hg-contaminated paddy soil. Two microcosm experiments were performed to explore the associated mechanisms. The results of the pot experiment showed that 0.1-1% CH and CO addition promoted the biomass of rice plants by 10-23% and increased the soil MeHg concentration by 34-143%, which exhibited a significant positive correlation with brown rice MeHg content. Organic fertilizer addition significantly increased MeHg bioaccumulation in rice plants and the ratio of MeHg to total Hg (THg) in brown rice. Organic fertilizer also increased the abundance of microbial methylators. The results of the microcosm experiments showed that organic fertilizer addition enhanced dissolved THg concentrations in soil and consequently increased the soil MeHg concentration. These results suggested that applying organic fertilizer to newly deposited Hg-contaminated soil may increase MeHg accumulation in grains due to enhanced Hg release and microbial methylator activity, leading to environmental health concerns.
