چکیده انگلیسی


• Macrophytes from Ethiopian rift valley lakes were investigated for trace element concentrations in leaves.
• Low concentration of trace elements in aquatic macrophytes showed low trace element load in the studied lakes.
• Eichhornia crassipes, Potamogeton schweinfurthii and Potamogeton thunbergii from Lake Koka, Ziway and Awassa, respectively, can accumulate higher concentration of trace elements and can be used as bioindicators of pollution.
• Aquatic macrophytes used as feed for animals contain sufficiently low level of trace metal elements.
• Based on the trace element concentration in macrophytes, PCA showed strong correlation between Pb, As, Co and Cr.

Trace elements (TEs) uptake from water and sediments to 10 aquatic macrophytes in the Ethiopia Rift Valley lakes Koka, Ziway and Awassa was investigated to evaluate pollution of these lakes. Concentrations of Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Cd, Pb and Mn have been determined in leaves of macrophytes, water and sediment, using ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma–Mass Spectrometry). Principal component analysis showed an existing variation in TEs concentration in leaves of aquatic macrophytes. High concentration of Mn (1.6 × 103 and 1.2 × 103 mg kg−1 dw) was found in Aeschynomene elaphroxylon of Lake Ziway and Eichhornia crassipes of Lake Koka, respectively. Cr concentration in low molecular mass (LMM) fraction of water and total sediment (4.9 μg L−1 and 95 ± 4 mg kg−1 dw, respectively) was higher in Lake Koka compared to lakes Ziway and Awassa. Some of the studied macrophytes can accumulate high level of trace elements concentration compared to the surrounding, showing their potential to be utilized as pollution indicators. Most TEs in macrophytes used as animal feed, such as Echinochloa stagnina (Retz.) P. Beauv, were sufficiently low.
