In this paper, the influence of elevated concentrations of some metal(oid)s (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in the soil on the content of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotenoids in leaves of national hybrids of pepper (Bela Duga) and maize (ZP606) was investigated. The results show the most pronounced negative effect of Mn and Pb on pepper, and Mn and Ni in the case of maize. The obtained results can serve in the discussion and better understanding of the potential of pepper and maize to deal with elevated concentrations of these metal(oid)s in the soil and their negative effects on plant growth and development.
