Abstract Insect feces are a new kind of biological organic fertilizer. Little is known about the influences of insect feces on rice growth and heavy metal migration from soil to rice plant. In this study, the effects of different amounts (CK (0%), T1 (2%), T2 (4%), T3 (6%), and T4 (8%) ) of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) feces on the rice growth and the migration/accumulation of heavy metals (Cd and Pb) were investigated by pot experiments within two years. The application of insect feces remarkably increased the contents of soil pH, organic matter, ammonium nitrogen, available phosphorus and potassium. Meanwhile, the insect feces application reduced the weak acid soluble contents of soil Cd and Pb by 8.3–56.8%, but increased those in the oxidizable (by 22.4–165.7%) and residual (by 1.8–225.6%) states. Except for the T4 treatment in the first year, all fertilization treatments increased the rice yield (up to 43.7% and 195.5% higher than those of CK within two years). Moreover, the insect feces application reduced the contents of Cd (8.3%-66.7%) and Pb (6.4%-61.8%) in different parts of rice. Under the same treatment, the metal contents in each part of rice in the second year were lower than those in the first year. The insect feces application decreased the absorption coefficients (24.4%-57.5%) and secondary transport coefficients (3.6%-44.1%) of Cd and Pb by rice plant.

Acid phosphatases are widely distributed in different tisssues of various plants. Studies on subcellular localization of acid phosphatases show they might be present in cell wall, plasma lemma, mitochondria, plastid, vacuole and nucleus. However, their localization in rice cell varies with developmental stages of cells and plant tissues. In present study, acid phosphatases occurring in root cap are examined.Sliced root tips of ten-day-old rice(Oryza sativa) seedlings were fixed in 0.1M cacodylate buffer containing 2.5% glutaraldehyde for 2h, washed overnight in same buffer solution, incubated in Gomori's solution at 37° C for 90min, post-fixed in OsO4, dehydrated in ethanol series and finally embeded in Spurr's resin. Sections were doubly stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate, and observed under Hitachi H-600 at 75 KV.
