HEAVY METAL ACCUMULATION IN ROOTS OF ТARAXACUM OFFICINALE WIGG
Zusammenfassung
Soil is an active acceptor for some elements, heavy metals in particular. Microelements are
firmly sorbed and interact with soil humus layer. At the same time some plants are resistant to soil
contamination and can be used as bioindicators. For this very reason the use of the most common
urban flora species in the system of ecological monitoring enables to assess pollution level of
various cities and industrial agglomerations.
