Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) intercropping with floricultural cadmium (Cd) accumulator plants (Helianthus annuus L., Cosmos sulphureus Cav., Cosmos bipinnata Cav., and Impatiens balsamina L.) in Cd-contaminated soils (5 mg/kg) was conducted in pot experiment to screen the floricultural Cd-accumulator plants that can effectively reduce Cd uptake in grapevine. Intercropping with H. annuus, C. sulphureus, and I. balsamina decreased the biomass of grape plants compared with that of the grape monoculture, whereas intercropping with C. bipinnata did not show differences in grape plant biomass both as compared to monoculture in Cd-contaminated soils and to control plants, grown in the same soil without Cd spiking. The superoxide dismutase and catalase activities, as well as soluble protein content, were increased by intercropping with C. bipinnata compared with the grape monoculture, but were decreased by the other intercropping treatments. In general, intercropping with the four floricultural Cd-accumulator plants decreased the Cd content in grape plants compared with the monoculture, and the Cd content in grapevine for the different treatments was as follows: monoculture > intercropped with I. balsamina > intercropped with C. bipinnata > intercropped with H. annuus > intercropped with C. sulphureus. As for the amount of Cd accumulated by shoots of the floricultural plants, the ranking was as follows: I. balsamina > C. sulphureus > H. annuus > C. bipinnata. Therefore, intercropping with floricultural Cd-accumulator plants could effectively decrease Cd accumulation in grape plants, and intercropping with C. sulphureus gave the best results in this study.
