Determination Of Heavy Metal And Macro Element Amounts In Different Parts Of Typha latifolia L.

25453

In this study, we determined the accumulation of heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Fe, Cd, Pb, Mn) and the concentrations of macroelements (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Na) in root, steam, rhizome and leaf parts in Typha latifolia L. disturbed in Melet, Turnasuyu and Akçaova aquatic ecosystems in Ordu province. According to the analyzes, the amounts of heavy metal and macro elements of plant parts are N P K N Ca Mg Zn Fe Mn Pb Cd Cu for the steam, N P K Ca Mg Fe Na Mn Zn Pb Cd Cu for the root, N P K Ca Mg Na Mn Zn Fe Pb Cd Cu for the leaves and N P K Ca Mg Na Fe Zn Mn Pb Cd Cu for the rhizome. Our data is evaluated by using three-ways analysis of variance. According to variance analyses, we found significant statistical differences among overall average of factor levels for the elements Iron (Fe), Phosphorus (P) and Magnesium (Mg) (p 0.05 and/or p 0.01). While a triple interactions are found significant for Zinc (Zn) and Nitrogen (N) elements, various binary interactions are found for Copper (Cu), Cadmium (Cd), Lead (Pb), Manganese (Mn), Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca) and Sodium (Na) elements (p 0.05 and/or p 0.01).
