Vliv jednorázové a vícenásobné aplikace EDTA na účinnost fytoextrakce těžkých kovů kukuřicí setou

Original language description

Induced phytoextraction of heavy metals using chelating agents and agricultural crops could present an environmental-friendly and cost-effective remediation technique for agricultural soils contaminated with heavy metals originating from smelting industry. The chelating agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) proved to be efficient in increasing the mobility and phytoavailability of heavy metals in soils. However, phytotoxicity and possible groundwater contamination through heavy metal leaching arethe possible drawbacks of EDTA application. Therefore, there is the need to optimise the agronomic practices to enhance the phytoextraction efficiency together with minimising the risks associated with heavy metal leaching. Samples of an agricultural soil (0-20 cm) contaminated by smelting industry were collected from the Příbram area, Czech Republic. The effect of single and split applications of EDTA disodium salt (3, 6, 9 mmol kg-1 and 3×1, 3×2, 3×3 mmol kg-1, respectively) on heavy
