Comparative impact of CO2 application and endophyte inoculation was investigated on the growth, rhizosphere characteristics, and cadmium (Cd) absorption of two ecotypes of Sedum alfredii Hance in response to Cd stress under hydroponic or rhizo-box culture conditions. The results showed that both CO2 application and endophyte inoculation significantly (P < 0.05) promoted plant growth (fresh weight and dry weight), improved root morphological properties (SRL, SRA, SRV, ARD and RTN) and exudation (pH, TOC, TN, soluble sugar and organic acids), changed Cd uptake and distribution of both ecotypes of S. alfredii. Meanwhile soil total and DTPA extractable Cd in rhizo-box decreased by biofortification treatments. Superposition biofortification exhibits utmost improvement for the above mentioned parameters, and has potential for enhancing phytoremediation efficiency of hyperaccumulator and sustaining regular growth of non-hyperaccumulator in Cd contaminated soils.
