Celery is one of the most important table plants in the world,
this plant tends to collect many minerals from the surrounding
environment, and one of these minerals is lead and chrome,
which they considered toxic metals if they accumulate in this
plant and accordingly three different areas were chosen for the
cultivation of this plant. It was divided into areas contaminated
with lead and chromium, which were close to the cement factory street and Bahr al-Najaf area polluted with sewage water and
its air polluted by the smoke of bricks. The celery leaves and the
soil planted in this sites were collected in December of the year
2020, for three replicates from each region, they were digested
and the concentration of lead and chromium were detected.
The results showed that the concentration of studied elements in
the soil and plants of Bahr Al-Najaf < Al Ma’mal Street < Al Bu
Hadari, and this difference was significant (< 0.05). Also, the results showed that the biological concentration of these elements
were large in Bahr Al-Najaf area compared to Al-Ma’mal Street
and Al-Bu Hadari area. Accordingly, the study recommends not
to plant crops in polluted areas and the necessity of chalking the
concentration of these elements of the soil and the surrounding
environments of the plants before starting cultivation.
