Abstract

Within the framework of this work, the authors conducted studies of plants (tangerine, lemon, orange), for the specifics of their contamination with heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Ba, Sr.). Several groups of correlative dependencies have been identified: between the accumulation of copper in lemon and the defeat of this plant by ticks; lead accumulation through the leaves is especially intense in the immediate vicinity of the road, therefore the amount of lead in the leaves of plants (growing near the road) is much higher; of all citrus oranges are the most suitable for use as a bioindicator of environmental pollution by lead. Keywords: ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION, HEAVY METALS, CITRUS FRUITS, TANGERINES, ORANGES, LEMONS, ACCUMULATION, SOILS, LEAVES, ROOT SYSTEM, BIOINDICATOR
