Abstract:

This study aimed to investigate the accumulation of Cadmium(Cd), Nickel(Ni), Chromium(Cr) and Lead(Pb) in roots, shoots, and leaves of basil plants (Ocinum basilicum L.) grown in a greenhouse. for that reason, a) 10 mg L-1 Cd(ΝΟ3)24Η2Ο, 20 mg L-1 Ni(ΝΟ3)26Η2Ο, 20 mg L-1 Cr(NO3)39H2O and 20 mg L-1 Pb(NO3)2 respectively, were applied in nine plants per treatment every 2 weeks through irrigation, b) foliar applications were performed with 240 mg CdO, 450 mg NiO, 450 mg CrO and 450 mg PbO per plant respectively, in three plants per treatment and c) nine control plants were irrigated only with tap water. After watering applications, high Cd and Ni concentrations were measured in leaves (257 mg kg-1 d.w.) and shoots (762 mg kg-1 d.w.) respectively, Cr was accumulated in all organs. in contrast, leaves presented the highest Pb concentration. Foliar applications resulted in high Cd and Ni concentrations in new leaves (3722 mg kg-1 d.w) and shoots (5237 mg kg-1 d.w) respectively, high Cr concentrations in leaves (1772 mg kg-1 d.w), and accumulation of Pb both in leaves and shoots. in conclusion, basil plants can accumulate significant Cd, Ni, Cr, and Pb levels in their shoots and leaves via contaminated water irrigation or foliar deposition of heavy metals.
