Shooting range soil is one of the most heavily contaminated sites in the world with heavy metals from shooting activities. The aim of the study was to evaluate remediation efficiency of contaminated shooting range soil using three plant species – Festuca arundinacea Schreb., Trifolium pratense L., and Medicago sativa L. assessing the impact of contamination on the development of plant species and the capacity of plants to accumulate potentially toxic elements from polluted soil. The field study was conducted in a Lithuanian civilian shooting range operating 65 years where lead (Pb) concentration in the shooting range soil was extremely high – 17,890 mg kg−1 and the elevated levels of antimony (Sb) was found in soil of berm. F. arundinacea had the highest biomass. The shoot height of all species grown in the contaminated shooting range soil was significantly lower than that of those grown in the uncontaminated soil. The shoot height of M. sativa and T. pratense was 30% lower compared to the control group, while the height reduction of F. arundinacea was only 10%. The same trend of the effect of contaminated soil on root length was observed - the roots were statistically significantly shorter than the control, while the mean root length of F. arundinacea did not differ from the control plants. The content of photosynthetic pigments in all three species tested was also significantly lower as that of the control plants due to contaminated shooting range soil. Shoots of T. pratense plants grown in the shooting range soil accumulated 10 times higher concentrations of Pb and 3 times higher concentrations of Sb in M. sativa compared to the control. Among all studied plants, F. arundinacea was the plant capable of accumulating significantly higher amounts of Pb, nickel (Ni) and Sb in roots than in shoots. The roots of all treated plants accumulated significantly higher concentrations of Pb compared to the control. The highest concentrations of Pb were determined in the shoots of F. arundinacea and T. pratense. Only the roots of M. sativa and F. arundinacea, accumulated higher concentrations of Ni and Sb, compared to controls. The significantly higher bioconcentration factor of Pb (BCFPb) was determined in F. arundinacea but it still was lower than 1.0. The Pb accumulation capacity of the different plant species was in the following order: F. arundinacea > T. pratense > M. sativa showing phytostabilization potential of plants. T. pratense had the highest translocation factor (TF) values, being able to translocate a high proportion of Pb and Sb from roots to shoots, while F. arundinacea had the lowest efficiency.
