Dandelion Plants as a Biomonitor of Urban Area Contamination by Heavy Metals

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

To examine metal content of dandelion plants in relation to environmental metal levels, concentrations of Cd, Hg and Pb were analyzed in plant parts (leaves and roots) and soil samples from five sites in the city of Brno (Czech Republic), differentiallyimpacted by pollution. Soils and plants were collected mid-April 2011. Atomic absorption spectrometry was used to determine concentrations of the studied elements. The amount of metals measured in soils and plants corresponded with the contamination loadof the sampling place. The highest values of metals were found in the soil and plants sampled at Opuštěná Street, a heavily polluted locality with high traffic density situated in the city centre. Significant correlations were found between the amount of Cd in the soil and in the dandelion roots (r = 0.863) and between the amount of Pb (r = 0.870) and Hg (r = 0.828) in the soil and in the dandelion leaves. Higher Cd content was found in underground part of the plants, indicating soil co
