N2  - The extraction of chromium (Cr) from soil by using green mustard (Brassica
juncea) have been studied. The effect of various experimental parameters have been
investigated too. The results showed that the amount of Cr from soil by Brassica juncea
plants affected by soil pH and plant age, the highest withdrawal occurred at of pH 7.0 -
7.5 at the age of 7 weeks. Cr withdrawal from soil by using green mustard without
induction with cadmium showed that the accumulation in roots was 412.287 mg / kg of
dry mustard and in the dry weight of leaves was 270.634 mg/kg mustard. The results also
showed that there was no influence between the size of the pot with the accumulation of
Cr on the plant because of the statistical analysis showed that there was no significant
difference between the size of the pot (0.5 kg soil) with the other size larger. While the
withdrawal of Cr from soil using cadmium induction showed that the Cr accumulation in
roots was 873.30 mg / kg of dry mustard and in the leaves was 545.28 mg / kg dry weight
of mustard. Thus, translocation of chromium metal ions from soil into roots and leaves of
green mustard with the addition of the cadmium as an inductor may increase
significantly which is two times greater than the accumulation of chromium without the
addition of inductors.
