TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of four water management regimes on As and Cd accumulation in seven major rice cultivars grown in Zhejiang province, east China indicates that ‘safe’ rice with respect to As andCd might be possible by balancing water management and rice cultivar according to the severity of soil pollution.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found a water management regime that can lower accumulation of both Cd and As in grain without yield loss, but they did not consider the effect of water management on the bioavailability of rice grains and grain yields.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the dynamic changes of soil solution and the mechanisms by which rapeseed cake (RSC) immobilized Cd and Cu in the soil-rice system.

TL;DR: Phytoremediation by alfalfa and S. plumbizincicola in association can both promote the removal of heavy metals and also alleviate the toxic effects of pollutants on plants and soil microbes even at relatively high soil OTC concentrations.

TL;DR: Growing the hyperaccumulator S. plumbizincicola and rice in rotation together with RSC application may therefore be regarded as a viable strategy for safe grain production and bioremediation.
