Effects of heavy metals on chemical composition of Camelina sativa L.

摘要: Camelina ( sativa L.) is studied mostly as oil plant that can replace oilseed rape in the extensive agriculture. It a good source of (40% seeds) similar to sunflower, soybeans, canola, castor been and other crops. Oil camelina rich essential omega 3 fatty acids. In addition, seed protein content relatively high. has modest requirements for agro-ecological conditions it highly resistant pathogens. Those features make suitable human nutrition animal feed. Its use related sustainable agriculture, bio-diesel industry, cold-pressed oils so-called marginal land. Examination its ability uptake accumulate heavy metals (HM) interesting from standpoint 1) food safety 2) potential phytoremediation. Hence, aim this study was investigate effect HM on accumulation some macro- micronutrients unwanted HM. Experiments were done with L., cultivar Stepski 1. The seeds exposed 1 µM Cd or Cu 10 Ni Zn since beginning germination. Plants grown water cultures, semi-controlled greenhouse, ½ strength Hoagland solution which added same concentrations during Concentrations distribution Ca, Mg, P, K, Fe Mn roots shoots altered presence increased concentration Cd, Cu, Zn.
