In this study, heavy metal content (Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn) was determined in soils and different organs of Verbascum olympicum Boiss. This species is endemic to Uludağ and spreads on destroyed areas such as: roadsides, developed building areas, ski lift stations and sheep folds. Soils and different organs (roots, stems, leaves and flowers) of plant samples were analyzed using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer for determining the element content. Heavy metal contents in soils and different organs in this species were highly correlated (P < 0.05). However, the contribution of plant organs to the accumulation capacity varied according to the metal. These results suggest that this species may be useful as a bioindicator for heavy metals.
在本研究中,测定了奥林匹亚毛蕊花(Verbascum olympicum Boiss.)土壤及不同器官中的重金属含量(铜、铁、锰、镍、铅、锌)。该物种为乌鲁达山特有种,生长于路边、建筑开发区、滑雪缆车车站和羊圈等破坏区域。采用原子吸收分光光度计分析植物样本的土壤及不同器官(根、茎、叶和花),以测定元素含量。该物种土壤和不同器官中的重金属含量高度相关(P < 0.05)。然而,植物器官对积累能力的贡献因金属而异。这些结果表明,该物种可能作为重金属的生物指示物。
