The concentration of copper and zinc in the organs of the hanging birch (Betula pendula roth.) and creeping wheatgrass (Elytrigia repens L.) in conditions of their natural growth

The influence of man-made pollution on the accumulation of copper and zinc in the soil and plants of the forest park zones of Yelets is studied on the example of the woody and plant objects of the natural environment prevailing in them-hanging birch (Betula pendula Roth) and creeping wheatgrass (Elytrigia repens). As a result of the conducted studies, the features of the deposition of copper and zinc in plant organs were revealed, and the total accumulation of the studied elements in the soil under green plantations was estimated.
