Heavy Metal Accumulations in Some Terrestrial Endemic and Non-endemic Plants in Mine Sites (Elazığ/Turkey)
The aim of our study is to determine the hyperaccumulatory properties by examining the heavy metal accumulation (Co, Ni, Fe) in endemic Anchusa leptophlla subsp. tomentosa, Alyssum pateri subsp. pateri, Glaucium acutidentatum and non endemic Erysimum uncinatifolium species collected from a copper mi...

| Sumario: | The aim of our study is to determine the hyperaccumulatory properties by examining the heavy metal accumulation (Co, Ni, Fe) in endemic Anchusa leptophlla subsp. tomentosa, Alyssum pateri subsp. pateri, Glaucium acutidentatum and non endemic Erysimum uncinatifolium species collected from a copper mining area in Elazığ Maden district. All species collected are hyperaccumulator according to their Bioconcentration Factor (BCF) values of Co element. According to NiBCF and FeBCF values, A. leptophlla and E. uncinatifolium species were found to be hyperacumulators. According to Transfer Factor (TF) value, it is determined that Co element can be transported upper organs in A. leptophlla, A. pateri species, whereas Ni and Fe elements in A. leptophlla, A. pateri, E. uncinatifolium species. Among the species examined, the CoEF values for A. leptophlla and NiEF values (EF>1) in all species are found to be higher than 1 according to the Enrichment Factor (EF). It can be said that the Ni accumulation capacities of all species are higher. In the study, soils samples taken from sampling area according to the Geo-accumulation index (Igeo) were found to be moderately contaminated in by Co and not so polluted by Fe. |
