Aim and Background: Phytorefining is a sustainable, natural, eco-friendly and widely applicable method for refining heavy metals in soil. Heavy metals are dangerous environmental pollutants that enter the food chain and cause harm to humans, plants, and other organisms. The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of zinc on the physiological stress process of spinach plants. Research method: In order to investigate the effect of zinc element on the physiological stress process of spinach plant, a pot experiment was carried out in a factorial form and in the form of a randomized complete block design with three replications.
Results: The results showed that increasing the concentration of chlorophyll b did not have a significant effect on chlorophyll b values, but caused significant changes in root and aerial parts, chlorophyll a, total chlorophyll and leaf surface.
Conclusion: According to the findings of the research, this plant can be used in soils contaminated with zinc metal or lands under the wastes of industrial factories to refine this metal.
