The aim of the research was to study short-term variations in concentrations of 17 elements in two widely distributed natural plant species (couch grass and plantain) and in the rhizosphere soil of the plants. The plant and soil samples were collected in a field from a small site over a daytime. In the course of the day, the variations of the total amounts of C, N, and H in the rhizosphere soil were rather marked and different for the soils taken from roots of plantain and couch grass. The concentrations of some other elements in the rhizosphere soil of the plants varied in a similar way. The short-term variations of element concentrations in roots and leaves of the plants were also rather large. In many cases, a decrease of element concentration in roots correlated with an increase of its concentration in leaves. Although couch grass and plantain were collected simultaneously and from the same site, mean concentrations of many elements in the two plant species were statistically significantly different. This may be result of the fact that the plants belong to different clades. The differences between concentrations of most part of elements in roots and leaves of the plants were also statistically significant. The concentrations of many trace elements were higher in roots than in leaves, while the concentrations of essential plant nutrients were often higher in leaves compared to roots. The distribution of elements between different plant parts were not the same in couch grass and plantain.
