Micro-edaphic factors affect intra-specific variations in trace element profiles of Noccaea praecox on ultramafic soils

The aim of this study was to compare trace element profiles of Noccaea praecox (Wulfen) F. K. Mey. growing on ultramafic soils in different habitat types and to observe differences in uptake and translocation of trace elements. Physico-chemical characteristics of the soil and concentrations of P 2 O...

Description
Summary:The aim of this study was to compare trace element profiles of Noccaea praecox (Wulfen) F. K. Mey. growing on ultramafic soils in different habitat types and to observe differences in uptake and translocation of trace elements. Physico-chemical characteristics of the soil and concentrations of P 2 O 5 , K 2 O, Ca, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Pb, Cd, and Co in plant samples were presented. Biological concentration, accumulation, and translocation factors were calculated to estimate accumulation potential of different N. praecox accessions. All of the studied accessions were Ni hyperaccumulators (with shoot concentrations up to 14,593 mg kg −1 ), but with notable differences in accumulation and translocation rates. Significant differences in accumulation and translocation patterns of trace elements were observed among accessions from habitats characterized as serpentine steppes on dry, shallow soils in contrast to the accessions from habitats with higher soil moisture, and higher content of organic matter.
