A pot culture experiment was conducted to study
impact and interaction of multi-metals on growth, yield and
metals uptake by spinach (variety All Green). Three levels
of each chromium (0, 50 and 100 mg/kg), cadmium (0, 1
and 2 mg/kg) and zinc (0, 10 and 20 mg/kg) in combinations (total treatments 3 9 3 9 3 = 27) were applied in a
Vertisol (5 kg). The results showed that increasing the
concentration of chromium, cadmium and zinc in soil
enhanced the respective metal concentrations in spinach
root and shoot. When cadmium at 2 mg/kg along with
chromium at 100 mg/kg soil was applied, chromium concentration and uptake were decreased in root and shoot.
Meanwhile, zinc application had no significant effect on
chromium uptake and concentration in spinach biomass.
From the results, it was concluded that cadmium at higher
dose had an antagonistic effect over chromium. On the
other hand, in chromium, cadmium and zinc combinations
particularly at their higher levels, a competition among
each other was found. Therefore, the findings could be used
as guidelines for controlling and management of heavy
metals pollution in farmland.
