AB  - Belgrade is one of the greenest capitals in Europe. The protected natural area, "Avala" (i.e. a separate part of unit that is declared as a landscape of outstanding features) is located on the territory of Belgrade and attracts the attention of all profiles of researchers. It should be noted also that the area of Avala was bombed in 1999 and the Avala Tower was destroyed. Researches aiming to determine the pollutant loading of the area are of particular importance. The aim of this research is to determine the content of 16 types of PAHs in three different locations on Avala sites 1, 2 and 3, with sampling of soil at two different depths (0-10 cm and 10-20 cm). One of the most frequent streets in downtown Belgrade (locality 4) was chosen as control site. On the basis of the results, it can be concluded that the soil of Avala is well preserved, which is in line with the declaration that Avala is a protected area.

AB  - In Europe Phytophthora ramorum has been reported on a range of
ornamentals as well as on a limited number of tree species in at least in 11
countries: UK, Spain, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, France,
Switzerland, Poland, Slovenia, France and Norway (http://rapra.csl.gov.uk).
It is recorded mainly on Rhododendron but other hosts including Camellia,
Kalmia, Pieris and Viburnum are also affected. This pathogen is regarded
to be a potential source of inoculum for tree epidemics in Europe.
In June 2008, symptoms resembling those of P. ramorum were observed on
12 specimens of Rhododendron sp. cv. Baden – Baden in an open garden
in the vicinity of Zemun, Serbia. Plants with symptoms of leaf necrosis and
blight and petiole necrosis were sampled and examined. Pieces of leaf
tissue from the edge of lesions were surface-sterilized (70% ethanol) and
placed on carrot piece agar, CPA (Werres et al., 2001). After 4–7 days
incubation, isolates were slow growing with numerous semipapillate
caducous sporangia ((35–80 (54) × 17–32 (26) μm) and large chlamydospores (average diameter 48 μm). The mating type was determined as
A1, due to formation of typical sexual structures when crossed with A2
mating type of P. cinnamomi and P. cryptogea. The identity of the isolates
was confirmed by PCR using Phyto1/4 primer pair (Hayden et al., 2004).
A representative isolate (Pr92-08) was sequenced (GenBank Accession No.
EU915480) and the ITS sequence was identical to other P. ramorum
isolates on NCBI GenBank database.
Pathogenicity was confirmed by inoculation of non-wounded detached
leaves (Denman et al., 2005) of 15 different host plants. First necrotic spots
were noticeable after 3 day incubation in moist chamber in laboratory on
Rhododendron variegatum, R. morgenrot and Viburnum plicatum. The
control leaves, inoculated with sterile water, showed no reactions. In all
cases, the pathogen was successfully recovered from leaves with symptoms
and also detected using PCR.
This is the first report of P. ramorum on Rhododendron plants in Serbia.
The infected plants were destroyed and measures were taken to eradicate
the pathogen according to EU legislation. The discovery of infected
Rhododendron plants should prompt more detailed surveys, thorough
inspections and subsequent testing in other areas of Serbia.

AB  - Based on the analysis of the heavy metal content (Zn, Fe, Pb, Cu, Ni, Cr Mn, Cd, As, Hg) in leaves of the trees growing in the urban part of the city of Belgrade, wider city area and rural area it may be noted that the content of Fe, Pb, Ni, Cr and Cd increases going from rural to urban area. The obtained results may be related to the increased air pollution in urban and suburban areas where some of these heavy metals appear as a direct consequence of fuel combustion. The level of tolerance of the species Paulownia elongata S.Y.HU towards air pollution represents the basis for its development and survival in urban conditions as well as setting up of tree alleys and forming wind protection zones along main traffic lines.

AB  - The level of the environment pollution with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is mainly in correlation with degree of the region industrialization and the traffic density. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of exhaust gases of gasoline and diesel motors on the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) accumulation in the soil, along the main road M-21. Soil samples were collected from seven localities, at two depths (0-20 and 20-40 cm). The method used for PAHs determination was gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The obtained results showed that PAH concentrations, mainly originating from diesel motors, were lower than 1 mg/kg soil. Concentrations of phenanthrene, benzo(a)anthracene and benzo(b)fluoranthene were elevated at all chosen localities and at depths of 0-40 cm.

AB  - Contamination of the environment with toxic heavy metals is a mayor environmental problem. Aimed to find effective and economical attractive solutions for environment cleaning, scientists intensively evolve various phytoremediation techniques. Nickel is one of the essential micronutrients for plants, animals, and humans, but toxic at elevated concentrations. Also, it belongs to a group of heavy metals. In respect of the fact that Ni uptake relies upon plant species and that some of them show hyperaccumulation effects, the aim of our study was to analyse Ni concentration in certain plant species affected by Ni contamination of air and surface soil. Ni deposition in the air was below 60 mu g/m(2)/month, while Ni content in the soil was between 42 and 150 mu g/g. Average Ni content in plants ranged from 0. 1 to 5. 0 mu g/g. Regardless the analysed locality, the highest Ni (7.1 mu g/g) was obtained with the hogweed, whereas the lowest (4.5 mu g/g) with the vines. Ambrosia artemis folia and Taraxum officinale accumulated the greatest amounts of Ni (10. 72 and 10. 61 mu g/g, respectively). It may be concluded that the analysed plant species exhibit various phytoremediation potential for Ni under the same ecological conditions.
