| dc.description.abstract | Out of the seven heavy metals (Fe, Mn, Co, Pb, Cd, Cu and Zn) studied in the leaves and stems of mangroves and mangrove associates of Veli (9 species), Kochi (5 species) and Kannur (9 species) regions, Cerbera odollam, a typical mangrove associate that spread in Veli, accounts for the highest contents of Mn and Cd. Other plant species do not show any specific heavy metal enrichment pattern in the coastal segments chosen for the present study. A comparative evaluation of heavy metal contents in the vegetal parts (leaves and stems) with that of the sediment substratum reveals that, almost all metals are concentrated in the former than latter. | en_US |
