This study was conducted to investigate the phytoremediation potential of Inula helenium, Physalis angulata and
Verbascum thapsus species which are grown on nickel (Ni), cadmium (Cd) and copper (Cu) polluted soils under controlled
conditions for 6 weeks. The chlorophyll levels, biomass production, heavy metal uptake and concentrations and reduced
glutathione concentrations were determined. According to the level of Ni, Cd, and Cu in the test plants did not reach to toxic
levels. Results showed that Physalis angulata had the highest Ni content 253 µg plant-1 with the 400 mg Ni kg-1 application,
the highest Cd was obtained from Physalis angulata (46.9 µg plant-1
) and Verbascum thapsus (54.6 µg plant-1
) with 10 mg
Cd kg-1 application and Physalis angulata had the highest 304 µg Cu with the 200 mg Cu kg-1 application. It can be
concluded that Physalis angulata and Verbascum thapsus have potential to clean-up Ni, Cu and Cd polluted soils.
