dc.description.abstractDenizli is one of the rapidly developing states in the West Anatolian Region of Turkey Keeping this in view, 30 different plants were selected to study their potential as biomonitors of trace elements like Pb, Cd, Ni, Zn, Fe and Mn (mu g g(-1), dry weight). The samples were collected from two different altitudes of Honaz Dagi, a mauntain overlooking at state of Denizli. The concentrations of trace elements were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). The mean concentrations determined at 1000 in altitude ranged between 0.273 to 0.488, 0.099 to 0.488, 0.306 to 0.682, 1.017 to 3.744, and 0.148 to 0.674 (mu g g(-1), dry weight), of Pb, Ni, Zn, Fe and Mn, respectively. At 1600 in altitude, the values ranged between 0.225 to 0.534, 0.150 to 0.842, 0.234 to 0.905, 1.082 to 3.864 and 0.023 to 0.982 (mu g g(-1), dry weight) of Pb, Ni, Zn, Fe, Pb and Mn, respectively. No Cd was detected at both altitudes.
