Abstract
The paper presents the results of studies on the content and accumulation of heavy metals: lead, cadmium, copper and iron in the soil and vegetative organs (shoots and needles) of the Savin juniper (Juniperus sabina L.), growing in three functional zones of the city of Yoshkar-Ola. It was found that soil samples contained unequal amounts of heavy metals. The industrial and residential areas of Yoshkar-Ola were characterized by the highest level of soil contamination with heavy metals. The same trend was noted for the vegetative organs of plants growing in these zones. According to the results obtained, it was revealed that metals accumulated in the shoots of the J. sabina were as follows: Fe > Cu > Pb > Cd. The biological absorption coefficient was higher for elements such as lead and copper. The highest indicator of biogeochemical activity was found in J. sabina plants growing in the recreational zone, and the lowest in the industrial zone. At the same time, the vitality of J. sabina plants growing under conditions of high heavy metals content in the soil was good.
