Abstract

This study was carried out
during 2012-2015. Our aim was to determine the soil-plant relationships of Cirsium cassium distributed in Hatay
province of Turkey. This local endemic species was collected from three
different localities in Hatay. The analysis of soil samples revealed that this endemic
plant prefers clayey-loam, nonsaline, slightly alkaline soils with a high lime
content. The nitrogen and potassium contents are of sufficient level but the
soils are rich in phosphorus. Analysis of root, stem and leaf shows that
nitrogen and phosphorus are below normal values in all plant organs; sodium is
above the normal value in all plant parts. The potassium is below normal values
in root and stem, but above normal values in leaf.
