The aim of work was to evaluate the influence of the grown locality on heavy metal intake (Zn, Cu, Cr, Co, Ni, Pb and Cd) from the soil to the soybean seeds. The research was realised in five different localities of Slovakia using the same soybean cultivar (Mentor). The total content of heavy metals and their mobile forms in individual soils was compared with the limit values according to Law 220/2004 and the European Commission (2006). In all soil samples the determined total content of Cd and in one locality als...

The goal of work was the determination of heavy metals content (Zn, Cu, Co, Ni, Cr, Pb and Cd) in samples of legumes /bean/ from the chosen cultivation fields of south-western Slovakia and also to review soil hygiene of the monitored localities. Common bean varieties were collected from cultivation fields from locality Hurbanovo and villages Dolne Saliby, Risnovce and Teplicky. To exceed limits of heavy metals in the soil of all localities, established by Law No. 220/2004 and by threshold values proposed by Europe...
