摘要
城市地区空气质量差,增加了人们接触空气污染物的机会。因此,必须种植更有潜力耐受空气污染并有助于缓解空气污染的植物物种。空气污染耐受指数(APTI)和预期性能指数(API)这两个指数有助于在推荐种植植物物种之前对其进行科学评估。在这项研究中,对阿姆利则市三所教育机构的六种植物物种进行了筛选,以确定它们对空气污染的耐受性和性能,以及作为九种金属(铝、铬、钴、铜、铁、锰、镍、铅和锌)蓄积体的能力。根据 APTI,拳叶决明属(C. fistula)被归类为耐受性强的物种,而学者海棠属(A. scholaris)、绒毛海棠属(C. thevetia)、长叶海棠属(M. longifolium)、羽扇豆属(P. pinnata)和烟叶茜草属(S. cumini)被归类为中间耐受性强的植物物种。空气污染指数结果表明,应种植 A. scholaris、C. fistula、M. longifolium、P. pinnata 和 S. cumini,以缓解空气污染。地质累积指数(Igeo)结果显示,土壤样本受到三种金属(铅、铜和锌)的中度污染。在六种植物中,所有金属的生物累积系数(BAF)均小于 1,这意味着这些植物是金属的吸收者。金属累积指数(MAI)表明,绒毛草、拳藻和羽扇豆的金属累积潜力相对较高。
Air pollution tolerance and metal accumulation potential of some plant species growing in educational institutions of Amritsar, India
Poor air quality in urban areas increases the exposure of individuals to air pollutants. Hence, it becomes mandatory to grow such plant species that have more potential to tolerate air pollution and can aid in its mitigation. Air pollution tolerance index (APTI) and anticipated performance index (API) are two indices that help in scientific evaluation of plant species before recommending them for plantation. In this study, six plant species from three educational institutions of Amritsar city were screened for their tolerance and performance against air pollution as well as for their capability to act as accumulators of nine metals viz., aluminium (Al), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn). On the basis of APTI, Cassia fistula (C. fistula) was categorized as a tolerant species while Alstonia scholaris (A. scholaris), Cascabela thevetia (C. thevetia), Monoon longifolium (M. longifolium), Pongamia pinnata (P. pinnata) and Syzygium cumini (S. cumini) were categorized as intermediately tolerant plant species. API results suggested that A. scholaris, C. fistula, M. longifolium, P. pinnata and S. cumini should be planted for air pollution mitigation. Geo-accumulation Index (Igeo) results showed that soil samples were moderately contaminated with three (Pb, Cu and Zn) metals. Bioaccumulation factor (BAF), for all metals among six plant species, was found to be less than one implying that these plants were absorbers of metals. Metal Accumulation Index (MAI) indicated that C. thevetia, C. fistula and P. pinnata exhibited relatively higher potential for metal accumulation.
