Phytoremediation is a valuable technology for mitigating soil
contamination in agricultural lands, but phytoremediation without economic revenue
is unfeasible for land owners and farmers. The use of crops with high biomass
and bioenergy for phytoremediation is a unique strategy to derive supplementary
benefits along with
remediation activities. Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is a high-biomass crop
that can
27 be
used for the phytoremediation of polluted lands with additional
advantages

(biomass and oil). In this study, 40 germplasms of sunflower were screened in
field conditions for phytoremediation with the possibility for oil and meal
production. The study was carried out to the physiological maturity stage. All
studied germplasms mopped up substantial concentrations of Pb, with maximum amounts
in shoot > root > seed respectively. The phytoextraction efficiency of the
germplasm was assessed in
terms of the Transfer factor (TF), Metal removal efficiency (MRE) and Metal
extraction ratio (MER). Among all assessed criteria, GP.8585 was found to be
most appropriate for restoring moderately Pb-contaminated soil accompanied with
providing high biomass
and high yield production. The Pb content in the oil of GP.8585 was below the

670 Although the naturally occurring amino acid glutamate/
671 glutamic acid serves as an energy source and is a precursor
672 of glutathione, several scientists have stated that glutamate is
673 the main component of meat taste (Fujimura and Kadowaki,

Adesodun, J.K., Atayese, M.O., Agbaje, T., Adesodun, J.K., Atayese, 722
675 levels of lysine in poultry feed increase the free glutamic acid
676 content and enhance the taste of chicken meat. These
677 findings suggested that application of phytoremediation to
678 metal-contaminated soil must emphasize certain factors (soil,
679 environment, plant species, and cultivation period) with
680 economically feasible agriculture production, and screening
681 of different sunflower germplasms in moderately Pb-
682 contaminated soil provides a promising option for identifying
683 the most suitable cultivar for phytoremediation accompanied
