“…The uptake was maximum in sandy loam soil followed by silt loam and was least in silty clay loam. These findings was in agreement with literature [21] that uptake of metal was greater in sandy soils due to higher transfer of metals from soil to plant were observed in sandy soils. Cd concentration in spinach leaves was reduced by organic matter application in soil.…”

A green house lysimeter experiment was conducted to determine the toxicity and uptake of Cd by spinach in Silt loam, sandy loam and clay loam soils with and without organic matter. Three level of Cd was applied i.e 3, 10 and 50 mgKg -1 of soil , there was a control with each treatment. On maturity the crop was harvested. Then soil samples were taken for fractionation scheme. Concentration of metal in spinach was increased with increasing rate of metal application. Application of organic matter increased the dry matter yield of spinach while reduced the uptake of metal by spinach. The uptake was maximum in sandy loam soil followed by silt loam and was least in silty clay loam. The Fractionation patron showed that distribution of metal in three type soil was different. The highest fraction was carbonate bound fraction in all types of soil.

“…These results are consistent with those of Gharbi, Rajeb, Ghobal, and Morel (2005), and Xiong and Wang (2005) where Cu in tissue of lettuce and spinach (which are brassicas) increased with increasing concentration of Cu in irrigation water. The findings concur with conclusions that in addition to differences between species, variations have also occur within species (Máthé-Gáspár & Anton, 2002;B.…”

A study where Chinese cabbage and pumpkin crops were grown on sandy loam and clay loam soils and irrigated with water contaminated with five levels of contamination from 0 (control), 25, 50, 75 and 100% of smelter water was carried out in a greenhouse. -0.004x (R 2 = 0.58).This study suggests that Chinese cabbage tends to accumulate higher amounts of Cu and Co than pumpkin. It can be concluded from this study that irrigating crops with contaminated results in higher uptake of contaminants and reduced biomass on sandy loam than clay loam soils.

“…Different plants behave differently in potentially polluted or polluted soils (Gharbi et al, 2005). Considering the plant characteristics, Ross (1994) established a plant classification based on their accumulating capacity: accumulator plants, excluder plants and index plants.…”
