“…Similarly, significant relations between Pb concentrations and soil properties, such as texture, organic matter, calcium carbonate content, and CEC were observed. Although our results are parallel to those found by workers, they are conducted with the others (Zimdahl and Foster 1976;Riffaldi et al, 1976;Gerriste and Van Driel, 1984;Yin et al, 2002;Kızılkaya et al, 2004).…”

In this study, the relationship between some physico-chemical properties of soils and lead contamination in soil due to emission from industrial operations in Samsun province of Turkey was investigated. The extent of timely contamination was studied by comparing the obtained results with the results of the study conducted in the same region in 1998. An area of 225 km(2) (15 km x 15 km), which was divided into 1000 x 1000 m grid squares (16 lines in the east and south directions), was selected within the industrial area. The total of 256 grid points was obtained and soil samples were collected from three depths (0-5, 5-15, and 15-30 cm) of each grid center in 2004. The total Pb concentrations of soil samples were determined as 65.84-527.04 microg g(-1) at 0-5 cm in depth, 58.50 - 399.54 microg g(-1) at 5-15 cm in depth, and 44.65-330.07 microg g(-1) at 15-30 cm in depth. DTPA-extractable Pb concentrations of soils were found to be in the range of 1.52-9.03 microg g(-1), 0.54-7.09 microg g(-1), 0.19-6.13 microg g(-1) at 0-5, 5-15, and 15-30 cm depths, respectively. There were significant relationships between both total or DTPA-extractable Pb concentrations and selected physico-chemical properties of soil. According to enrichment factor (EF) values calculated from the total Pb concentrations, 11.3% of the study area (225 km(2)) was enriched with Pb in high level, but 77% of the area was in significant enrichment level with Pb. The average total and DTPA-extractable Pb concentrations increased as 11 and 13%, respectively in comparison with the results of 1998.

“…Miller et al (1975) concluded that plant uptake of Pb is controlled by the amount of Pb present relative to the capacity of the soil to adsorb Pb, rather than simply by the total amount of Pb in the soil. Others have reported reduced Pb uptake in lettuce with increased applications of organic matter (MacLean et al, 1969;Zimdahl and Foster, 1976;Bassuk, 1986).…”

“…Lower concentrations of Zn, Fe, Mn, Cu, Ni, Cd and Pb have been associated with the addition of phosphate fertilizer (MacLean et al, 1969;Miller et al, 1975;Boggess et al, 1978;Bassuk, 1986). Additional organic matter has resulted in reduced uptake of Pb, Ni, Cd and Zn (Haghiri, 1974;MacLean, 1974;Zimdahl and Foster, 1976;Bassuk, 1986). However, many of these studies involved soils enriched with metal salts, and researchers have found that plants can absorb much higher amounts of metals from soils treated with metal salts than from soils which accumulate equivalent metal loadings from environmental sources over many years.…”

Previous research has demonstrated that many urban soils are enriched in Pb, Cd and Zn. Culture of vegetable crops in these soils could allow transfer of potentially toxic metals to foods. 'Tanya' lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) was grown in pots of five urban garden soils and one control agricultural soil to assess the effect of urban-soil metal enrichment, and the effect of soil amendments, on heavy metal uptake by garden vegetables. The amendments included NPK fertilizer, limestone, Ca(H2PO4)2, and two rates of limed sewage sludge compost. Soil Cd ranged from 0.08 to 9.6 mg kg(-1); soil Zn from 38 to 3490 mg kg(-1); and soil Pb from 12 to 5210 mg kg(-1). Lettuce yield on the urban garden soils was as great as or greater than that on the control soil. Lettuce Cd, Zn and Pb concentrations increased from 0.65, 23, and 2.2 mg kg(-1) dry matter in the control soil to as high as 3.53, 422 and 37.0 mg kg(-1) on the metal-rich urban garden soils. Adding limestone or limed sewage sludge compost raised soil pH and significantly reduced lettuce Cd and Zn, while phosphate fertilizer lowered soil pH and had little effect on Zn but increased Cd concentration in lettuce. Urban garden soils caused a significant increase in lettuce leaf Pb concentration, especially on the highest Pb soil. Adding NPK fertilizer, phosphate, or sludge compost to two high Pb soils lowered lettuce Pb concentration, but adding limestone generally did not. On normally fertilized soils, Pb uptake by lettuce was not exceptionally high until soil Pb substantially exceeded 500 mg kg(-1). Comparing garden vegetables and soil as potential sources of Pb risk to children, it is clear that the risk is greater through ingestion of soil or dust than through ingestion of garden vegetables grown on the soil. Urban dwellers should obtain soil metal analyses before selecting garden locations to reduce Pb risk to their children.

Lead phytoextraction: species variation in lead uptake and translocation

SUMM.^RYLead transport has been characterized in corn {Zea mays L. cv. Fiesta) and ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.), and the Pb phytoextraction efficiency of these species has been compared with that of Triticum aestivum, Thlaspi rotundifolium, Thlaspi caerutescens and Brassica juncea, using both nutrient solutions and Pb-contaminated soils. Our results demonstrated that plant species differ significantly in Pb uptake and translocation. In short term (60 min) experiments, Pb uptake by ragweed roots was threefold higher than that hy corn roots, .'^fter 2 w^k of Pb (100/^M) exposure in hydroponics, root-Pb concentration was 24000 mg kg~* for ragweed and 4900 mg kg~^ for corn. In contrast to root-Pb concentration, shoot-Pb concentration was significantly higher in corn (560 mg kg"^) than in ragweed (30 mg kg"'), .-^t an external Pb concentration of 20/IM, corn concentrated Pb in shoots hy 90-fold, and ragweed concentrated Pb in shoots by 2G-fold over the solution Pb concentration. Of the 11 species/cultivars tested using botb nutrient solutions and Ph-contaminated soils, corn accumulated the highest shoot-Pb concentration. Using this corn cultivar. we investigated the role of synthetic chelates in Pb phytoextraction. Addition of HEDT.Ai (2-0 g kg"' soil) to a Pb-contaminated soil (total soil Pb 2500 mg kg"') resulted in a surge of Pb accumulation in corn. The shoot Pb-concentration was increased from 40 mg kg"' for the control ( -HE^DT.-^) to 10600 mg kg"' for the HEDTA-treated soil. To our knowledge, this is the highest shoot Pb concentration reported m the literature for plants grown on Ph-contaminated soils. Our results suggest that in combination with soil amendment, some agronomic crops, such as corn, might be used for the clean-up of Pbcontaminated soil.
