Abstract:
This article presents the results of a study on the phytotoxicity of Voronezh soils. Currently, with increasing anthropogenic load in cities, soil phytotoxicity is rising sharply. This is primarily due to the increasing number of automobiles. It is not always possible to assess this soil property using laboratory methods. In this case, bioindication methods can be used, which can be successfully applied to obtain primary data on the state of the environment, including soil. Herbaceous plants in the early stages of ontogenesis show a strong response to soil quality. During the study, four soil sampling sites were selected in different areas of the city. After appropriate preparation, the collected samples were used to germinate the seeds of test herbaceous plants using generally accepted methods. The results of the study indicate that the soil samples collected on Moskovsky Prospekt are highly toxic, while the remaining samples are moderately toxic. Soils at the control point (Olimpik base) are slightly toxic.
