Mineral Elements in a Succulent Plant Species, Orostachys spinosa L. (Crassulaceae)
Nine mineral elements (in oxide form) were revealed in the ash of leaves and stems of Orostachys spinosa . The content of Ca was the highest (62.63%), while the contents of other elements, such as K, Mg, P, Si (varied between 4.63 and 11.96% of absolute dry weight), S, Fe, Mn, Zn (varied betw...

| description | Nine mineral elements (in oxide form) were revealed in the ash of leaves and stems of
Orostachys
spinosa
. The content of Ca was the highest (62.63%), while the contents of other elements, such as K,
Mg, P, Si (varied between 4.63 and 11.96% of absolute dry weight), S, Fe, Mn, Zn (varied between 0.05
and 2.89%) were relatively lower. After estimation of the content of mineral elements (in absolute dry
weight) of
O. spinosa
, we revealed that the Ca, Fe, and Mn were relatively higher in
O. spinosa
than
those in the other plants. |
