High‐nickel insects and nickel hyperaccumulator plants: A review
Tóm tắt
Insects can vary greatly in whole‐body elemental concentrations. Recent investigations of insects associated with Ni hyperaccumulator plants have identified insects with relatively elevated whole‐body Ni levels. Evaluation of the limited data available indicates that a whole‐body Ni concentration of 500 μg Ni/g is exceptional: I propose that an insect species with a mean value of 500 μg Ni/g or greater, in either larval/nymphal or adult stages, be considered a “high‐Ni insect”. Using the 500 μg Ni/g criterion, 15 species of high‐Ni insects have been identified to date from studies in Mpumalanga (South Africa), New Caledonia and California (USA). The highest mean Ni concentration reported is 3 500 μg Ni/g for nymphs of a South African
