In particular, it has been determined that structural and functional changes are present in plants exposed to metals at high rates. The accumulation of heavy metals in the environment is a serious problem. In this study, the effect of heavy metals such as Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+ and As3+ on the plant growth of the seeds of İspir bean insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Phaseolus vulgaris L.);, a species peculiar to the İspir region of Erzurum and well known by public, was investigated.
