Abstract

This investigation was carried out to determine the trace element nutritional status of cherry laurel (Prunus laurocerasus L.) in Eastern Black Sea region of Turkey. For this purpose, leaf samples were collected from different 20 cherry laurel (P. laurocerasus L.) gardens in June. Iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), boron (B) and molybdenum (Mo) contents were determined in leaf samples. According to the results, Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, B and Mo contents of leaf samples were determined between 50 to 130, 2 to 8, 27 to 56, 950 to 1032, 36 to 52 and 0.05 to 0.32 mgkg-1, respectively.

 

Key words: Cherry laurel (Prunus laurocerasus L.), plant nutrients, nutritional status, trace elements.
