Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
This research was done aimed to Studying of Interaction Effect between Organic Matter and Arsenic Element on Transfer Coefficient (TC) in Cress plant. The research was performed in the flowerpot format in a completely randomized format design as factorial with three replications. The treatments included two levels of organic substance (0 and 10 tons per hectare) and three levels of arsenic (0, 20 and 40 mg/kg). After full growth of the plant, the total arsenic concentrations were measured using atomic absorption device in aerial organs of the shoots and in the soil. The statistical analysis and means comparison were performed using MSTAT-C software and applying DMRT method at 5% and 1% levels. The results showed that arsenic treatment effect on the element retention rate in the plant shoot was significant at 1% level. Also, the results from comparing the means of interactions showed that the arsenic absorption at 40 mg/kg treatment in the presence of organic substance increased by 22% compared to control treatment.
